Title: Sail Into Hope.
Year: September 1998.
Materials: Acrylic on Canson carton.
Behind the Brush: The idea was born when I was strolling by the seashore in Tyre. The coast line in my area is incredibly catchy. I used to go there whenever I feel a little bit agitated from something, or disturbed at home, or for only releasing one's caged feelings. Gazing at the waters was not only the cure, it was the scene of the fishermen, and the amazing sight of the small boats fleeing from the steep water to the areas filled with fish. The lightening that flashes from their eyes, the rays reflected at the surface of the boats, the glimmering surface of the sea ... all contribute to the Hope believed to reside upon the yoke of the Horizons .. the hope that with every moving wave, luck is approaching, fate is smiling, fish are gathering, gain is at reach!!

I love waterfronts.
I love the open sea... The Oceans... Sailing.
So this painting talks to me directly.
The colors are so warm, and they give me the sensation of calm and leaves open the way for dreaming.
It seems to be at sunset. And that's my favorite time, especially if I'm looking at the sea. At first I was surprised not to see the blue color in the painting, but later, I saw that it wasn't necessary at all... the hues used are capable of conveying the idea without lacking anything.
Nice one... And if it's your first, dear painter... I must say, it's a very good start.
I love water, as well.
It brings forth zillions of silent images. It charges the viewer with patience, power, and superb resolution.
Blue sky seemed less necessary than the other elements. The boats took the whole focuse along with the intensely colored horizon that symbolizes Hope.
It is not my first painting. I will post my first in the coming days.
Thanks for your comment.
Une splendeur.
Les couleurs chaudes donnent un frisson très sensuel.
Le bleu redonne la fraîcheur de la mer sans pour autant être trop affiché.
Le couple de voiliers donne le sentiment de l’amitié et surtout de la complicité qui reste associé à la liberté de la mer.
Un amour de tableau.
