Oil on canvasboard impressionist style painting by Gerald Leake depicting a serene marina scene, capturing various boats—ranging from small rowboats to larger sailboats—gently bobbing in the clear, sunlit waters. The artist uses lively brush strokes and a bright palette to reflect the light dancing on the water's surface, creating a shimmering effect that conveys both the movement of the water and the tranquility of the setting. The background shows a hint of a shoreline dotted with greenery under a broad, dynamic sky.Type of Painting
