"The Isaac H. Evans" 6"x8" oil on linen © 2012 Brian Kliewer About the painting... This is another view of the "Evans." The first painting I posted featured the ship in a backlit setting. Here she's on display in full sunlight. The Evans is sort of an elusive schooner to me. It often looks like a work horse when compared to the other schooners in the fleet, but it also looks very lovely under sail. It has a two-tone hull...light gray on the lower portion and bright white on the upper. This adds to the elusiveness. Oftentimes under full light, as you see it here, it looks like an entirely white ship. |
