This is an original oil on canvas by American artist David Forbis, known for his serene maritime landscapes and skillful use of light and atmosphere. The composition features two weathered wooden rowboats pulled ashore on a sandy beach, their paint softly worn by the elements. In the distance, a misty lighthouse and coastal village emerge through the morning fog, while seagulls wheel gracefully above the rolling surf.

David Forbis frequently painted nautical scenes, often focusing on boats at rest along the shoreline, but this work stands out as a unique composition not found among his more commonly seen pieces. His masterful blending of cool sea tones with warm highlights on the boats creates a striking balance of tranquility and depth.
The painting is signed “David Forbis” in the lower right corner. It is presented in its original vintage wood frame with linen liner, complementing the coastal theme.
