Ship LUCY G. DOW

Located in Costa Mesa, CA

The strength of a great ship portrait lies with its overall striking composition blended with an attention to detail.

Note the fine details of the captain and crew hard at work onboard off the coast. The numerous buildings are clustered on the peninsular stretch with a pier coming out near the lighthouse’s walkway. At the distance, ship masts...
