Ship Carvings - Men of Many Colors

Mystic, CT  2020

I have a few more "portraits" of ship carvings that I'll save for a later date.  The craftsmanship that went into all these carvings was outstanding.  They are all so life-like and expressive.  Anyone who visits Mystic Seaport should take the time to see these carvings in person.

    1. Thanks for the kind words, Jeff. I am always mesmerized when looking at all these ship carvings. The detail and expressions are remarkable. I wish I could capture the emotion shown by these carvings in portraits of real people.
