(c) Boats

A harbour scene alive with moored sailing vessels rendered in loose, expressive brushwork. The composition centres on boats with dark hulls and red detailing, anchored against a mountainous backdrop rendered in purple and grey. The palette shifts between warm yellows and ochres in the foreground to cooler purples and blues above, creating atmospheric depth. Gericke’s acrylic technique layers colour with visible gestural marks, building a sense of maritime activity and light.
