Description

Print taken from a watercolor by Stan Sharp depicting a sailboat with a red, blue and white spinnaker passing Wisteria Island, also known as Christmas Tree Island. The sailboat is gliding gracefully across a shimmering blue sea. The sky above is a mix of vibrant blue and soft clouds, hinting at good sailing weather, while in the background, a lush island dotted with greenery and a smaller boat on the periphery suggest a serene, secluded locale.
