Fair Winds and Following Seas

A red fishing boat heads out to sea in search of lobster. Seagulls hover over the boat looking for scraps and a collection of buoys hangs in the foreground.

This handcrafted scene is mounted on a piece of natural driftwood, washed ashore, once part of a working lobster trap.

You can find this piece, along with more of my work, at Seabright Art Gallery in beautiful Seabright, Nova Scotia. ❤️

The Atlantic Silverside, also known as Spearing, is found in great numbers along the Atlantic Coast of North America. Due to their small size (2"- 6" long) this beautiful fish makes a tasty treat for many larger fish, sea birds and marine creatures. 🩵
