Waiting for the tide

Waiting for the tide, Scott's Quay
by Sophie Velzian   

Oil on canvas 57 x 57cm    
White stained tray frame

A solitary boat, tied up to this secluded quay on the Helford River, the tide is too low to be able to navigate upriver. I like the sense of anticipation in this painting, waiting for the tide to turn and yet enjoying the moment of quiet. Several of my paintings feature solitary boats, there is a presence to them which I like, a suggestion of life and people being nearby.
