About the Item

William R Davis's "Florida Waterway" is a breathtaking contemporary painting that encapsulates the vibrant atmosphere of Florida's coastal landscapes. This stunning artwork presents a tranquil waterway scene, where the harmonious blend of nature and water elements invites viewers to immerse themselves in its peaceful charm. In the foreground, the calm waters gently lap against the shore, reflecting the vivid blue sky above. A distant sailboat glides gracefully across the water, its white sails catching the sunlight. The sailboat serves as one of many focal points in this painting, drawing the viewer's eye towards the horizon and evoking a sense of exploration. Towering palm trees frame the scene, their fronds swaying gently in the coastal breeze, adding a touch of tropical elegance. The variance in hues of green contrasts beautifully with the light blue waters, enhancing the painting's vibrant and lively ambiance. Above, distant birds soar effortlessly across the sky, their flight adding a dynamic element to the composition and reinforcing the painting's sense of movement. The distant birds, coupled with the sailboat, suggest movement and the ever-changing nature of coastal life. Davis's masterful use of light and color captures the essence of a perfect day by the water, infusing the scene with warmth. His attention to detail and skillful brushwork bring the landscape to life, making "Florida Waterway" a captivating piece that resonates with anyone who cherishes the beauty of coastal environments. "Florida Waterway" is a serene escape into a world where nature's beauty and tranquility reign supreme, making it a perfect addition to any collection that celebrates the splendor of the great outdoors. This painting comes with frame in excellent condition, signed lower left and on verso!

Breaking Surf
By Sally Swatland
Located in Costa Mesa, CA
Blessed with natural artistic ability and finding encouragement from her family at an early age, Sally Swatland has traveled the proper paths to find herself in a unique place: the foremost American woman painting children at the seashore. With a romanticized nod to yesteryear, Swatland's characters are innocent and fair, in an array of matching springtime and summery apparel. Adept with brush and palette knife, she blends many artistic influences and styles into her own unique presentations. This painting features a fair-haired young girl dipping her feet in the shallow waters along a rocky shoreline. The sea behind is a brilliant blue with small white-capped waves rolling into shore. The brushwork alternates between smooth strokes in the child's form and dress and more impasto work and sharper edges on the rocks and in the more active parts of the sea. The overall effect is that of being at the sea and finding serenity in the contrast between the calm shore and the always moving ocean. The seas' eternal inspiration form a common backdrop to many of Swatland's artistic works. Born in Washington D.C., her family moved to Greenwich, Connecticut and often summered at Tod's Point, Long Island Sound. She would go on to become an art major at Mount Saint Vincent College, study under Robert Schulz in the Art Students League of New York, and come to be represented early by Alistair Stair in his New York and Florida galleries...
