Sailsport Regatta

- Provenance: original artwork signed “RE JAMES 83”- Media: oil on masonite panel- Artwork Dimensions: 24”h x 18"v- Frame Dimensions: 24 11/16"h x 19 5/8"v- Condition: very good… This work boasts a rare dynamic quality that is a significant accomplishment in its own right. Movement, lifeforce, and expression are the most challenging concepts for an artist to portray given the relative rudiments of his/her medium; which is why they are more seldom featured. Here, one can feel the weight of the wind as it fills the sails, and even in the sky, the way that the clouds are dispersed, and the rolling chop of the waves, through which these proud vessels are slicing. The whole piece, including the crude simplicity by which it is framed oozes a robust masculinity, perfect for your waterfront den, clubhouse or billiards room.
