Tug Boat in Trouble

Original Painting - Acrylic on canvas 12x16
The sturdy little tugboat struggles through heavy seas heading for a safe harbor as the wind howls and the cold waves flood the decks and threaten to capsize the craft. The immense and violent waves crashing against the tiny ship toss it about and then plunge it again down watery canyons. The dark vastness of the  ocean is terrifying and only the lights of the floundering boat offer any warmth to the scene.
