COMIN' ABOARD

aprox. 22x28" acrylic on linen.......$1600
Our famous pilot tug the Arrow  no.2 is being retired soon. She operates out of Astoria  for Foss Marine and is responsible for picking up and dropping off pilots when the big tankers and container vessels come over the Columbia river bar. Been doing the job for a long time but  they've built a new one to take over for the old gal. I doubt the new tug will be nearly as photogenic so I wanted to do some paintings to commemorate the passing. This is the Arrow 2 hooking up with the Ammon Ace. From a photo taken by Nate Sandel of Astoria. Thanks Nate.
