Sailboat Beneath the Branches

A bright seaside scene places a small white-sailed boat against rolling blue water, with a simplified branching tree anchoring the left foreground. Broad, expressive strokes shape the sky, waves, shoreline, and warm rust-colored land, giving the piece the directness and charm of naive landscape painting. The tilted branches create a strong diagonal toward the boat, while pale wave crests and the open sky lend the scene a breezy, optimistic sense of space.
