Sailing Paintings are Romantic for Daydreaming
Sailboats are a passion for me in art – I love the romantic thought of being carefree and sailing away into the sea far away from the hectic daily grind of business and people/technology noise.
I love computers and being on the Net and I would probably have to take my computer with me just so I could still paint digitally even if I were to manage to sail away into a carefree sailing vagabond life.
The reality of sailing is much different than looking at a painting and imagining oneself relaxing as the sailboat skitters before the wind across the ocean. Sailing is hard work, especially in a storm. Paintings or prints are popular with people like me that do not want the work involved but want the romantic daydream idea.
One doesn’t have to worry if they would get seasick or fall overboard to drown in a storm when sitting at home daydreaming about visiting faraway places from the deck of the sailboat pictured in the fine art print hanging on the wall.
