__________

Painted/named from a poem by Juliana Henderson Crespo.

I wanted this scene to feel like a warm embrace from a loved one after a nightmare. The relief. The nostalgia. The warm, humid air and the smell of salt water. All reassuring and comforting things.

All originals and prints come with the poem they’re named/painted from, in case you’d like to frame and hang it next to the art.

Oil on board in gorgeous antique 1860-90s frame, ready to hang.

Painting: 19.75" x 13.75" | Frame: 24.75" x 18.75"

The frame features original, time-won character, adding to the overall charm of this piece. This scene was created specifically for this frame.
