Provenance: All the paintings we have for sale by this artist have come from the artists estate and have had no previous owners at all. Description: This expressive vintage oil painting captures a striking coastal harbor scene featuring two anchored fishing boats near a lighthouse. The composition is brought to life through thick, dynamic brushstrokes and heavy impasto texture, with a muted marine color palette of slate grey, soft blue, stormy green, and warm beige. The focal point is a pair of traditional fishing boats floating near a stone dock, their forms carved with palette knife technique for dramatic depth. A tall lighthouse stands in the distance with its light just igniting—rendered in a warm flicker of orange that adds a compelling contrast to the overcast, textured sky. This 1993 seascape painting embodies the essence of coastal life and maritime tradition. It evokes the rugged charm of northern French ports such as Brittany or Normandy, where working harbors and windswept skies define the atmosphere. Ideal for lovers of nautical decor, seascapes, marine art, and rustic French interiors, this piece works beautifully in a coastal cottage, boho-modern room, or curated gallery wall. The expressive palette knife texture, fishing boats, moody clouds, and vintage marine atmosphere all make this an eye-catching and collectible work.
