Description:
Watercolor on paper illustrating a waterscape of a tidal creek. This painting is a highly detailed complete artwork. Large cumulus clouds dominate the center of the sky. A bridge for multi-lane car traffic is visible in the center distance through some trees and in the middle distance, bouys divide the lanes of water traffic. In the foreground, the shore line is scattered with small palmetto trees. The nearly aerial view of the landscape may suggest that this was painted from a high porch or the roof of a waterfront property.
