Description:

Watercolor on paper illustrating two shrimp boats docked at a wharf. The subjects are conveyed using vivid colors applied in washes that are surrounded by thick black outlines, including the cloud. The water is conveyed using turquoise and black strokes. A group of figures are visible on the pier in front of a structure with a green roof. Most of the outlines are applied with a dry brush technique, except for the outlines of the body of the first ship which are applied using a wet brush.
