Waiting for the Tide, Original Painting

About the Item

Artist Comments
A weathered boat rests along the shoreline, while the shack in the background mirrors its rust tones and distressed markings. The warm autumn foliage completes the charming scene. Soft reflections ripple across the water, capturing the tranquil atmosphere of Nova Scotia.


About the Artist
Artist Thomas Hoerber brings his lifelong experience as a make-up artist to his watercolor paintings. "I am drawn to the historical and the weathered because I find beauty in their character," says Thomas. Following his retirement from a 45-year career in the TV and film industry, he finds endless inspiration on the rugged California coast. His focus on painting different kinds of boats is inspired by all the time he spent fishing with his grandfather. Additionally, his motivation to capture coastal scenes stems from day trips to waterside cities and memories of deep-sea fishing, motorcycle riding, and exploring hidden corners of the region. He paints in a well-lit corner of his living room, adjacent to his backyard garden, where he occasionally takes a quick break. When not painting, Thomas enjoys watching baseball, reading, and walking on nearby beaches.

Coastal Summer Sunset, Original Painting
By Catherine McCargar
Located in San Francisco, CA

Artist Comments
A silhouette of a single Monterey pine basks in the glow and soft light of the setting sun. The lavender surface of the ocean reflects the radiant sky. California-based artist Catherine McCargar loves taking painting trips to the coast. In this piece, she painted on Moonstone Beach in Cambria.


About the Artist
Impressionist Catherine McCargar expresses her deep admiration of nature through landscape paintings of Northern California. While she is well-versed in a range of media, her preferred medium for painting is watercolor. The fluidity of the paint allows her to capture the muted undertones and the fleeting light found in the natural world. While the backgrounds of her paintings are impressionistic, the foregrounds of her paintings are often highly detailed, showcasing her technical mastery over her medium.
