    “Fast Anchor’d” – an Anniversary Gift


    2011 - 11.12

    Remember the sailboat painting, ‘Slow M’Ocean’? The owners were ready for their next custom painting!

    The wife contacted me to get an anniversary gift done for her husband. The anchor held special meaning to them, as it was a part of their wedding in many ways.

    I came up with the idea of doing a round  underwater painting, to give the feel as if you were looking out of a porthole.

    I searched for a long time for a porthole frame, and couldn’t find one I wanted for the longest time. Of course, once I stopped looking, the porthole frame found me! It was a great find!

    The painting is of an old ferruginous anchor, nestled at the bottom of the ocean and resting up against some rocks. If you look closely, you will see Sergeant Fish, and a meaning sea shell in the background.

    I hope you enjoy this custom porthole painting!
