Description
A manatee floats in shallow water, half-submerged with its massive body rendered in soft grays and blacks against pale sandy ground and luminous turquoise water. Palm trees and wetland vegetation line the distant shore in gentle greens and blues, while the artist's watercolor technique captures both the animal's weight and the water's translucent quality with delicate, layered washes. Crafted from bamboo and made to order, with a drilled hole so it hangs on the wall as easily as it works on the counter. A kitchen essential carrying an independent artist's work, not a blank block from the big-box aisle.
