There is a lot to look at throughout this painting.  I can't say enough about the gorgeous texture along the bottom, with the mix of gold and soft blues brushed along the surface.  There is so much gorgeous depth there.  The colors of the water and how they mix with the turquoise and darker shades beam as the water holds above the the cruising boat.   The boat has a slight opal tint, with a just few hints of sparkle.
The painting is sealed with spray gloss varnishes.
