Just Sailed Past Boston- SOLD

Pin It
"Just Sailed Past Boston"
Oil, 8" x 8" on canvas panel.
Sold.
Hmmm ... what an interesting title for this painting. What could it possibly mean?
Ok, I will give you a couple of hints ...
1.  I have been extremely quiet since a really big event occurred on Thursday night.
2.  I used a very limited palette in this painting ... purple and gold ...
3.  The painting depicts an event that involved a group of about 12 men (and a coach) who basically... "sailed past boston"...

Sorry Celtic fans. I couldn't resist ... and if anyone has Kobe's address please send it to me. I would gladly send this to him as a gift. Thanks Lakers for a great year and back to back national championships.

Just couldn't help yourself could you..:)) Would this be considered "sporting art"??
Love it! And I am guessing if Kobe were to end up with this it would come nicely gift wrapped.....what a great idea.....wish I had thought of that....

I'm so happy I found your blog, Leslie! You are so inspiring! I love your art and have been trying to learn as much as I can from your radio show. I love it! Thanks, Jennifer:)

Great palette and I love the way you've filled sky area with masts. Makes for a nice balance with the strong reflection in the water. Lovely!

Ha-ha! Great painting, I have to admit even though I am a Celtic's fan.
