| Loss of the USCGC Jackson 1944 - acrylic - 14x18 - (16x20 print available) |
On September 14, 1944 during a massive hurricane,
the CGC Jackson & Bedloe were sunk with the loss of 47 crew. Both vessels were escorting the Liberty ship George Ade which
had been torpedoed by U518 and in tow by the Navy vessel ATR-6 off of Cape Hatteras NC. The same hurricane sent the Coast
Guard Lighship Vineyard Shoals to the bottom with all hands.
This is my rendition, as recalled by survivors, just moments
before the Jackson foundered. Check out Mr. Galecki's book in gallery 1.

| Latitude 38 South - acrylic on an old British Admiralty chart PRIVATE COLLECTION |
This is of a Clipper Ship off the coast of
Australia. It was done on a British Admiralty chart that a friend of ours had. He had just completed a single-handed
voyage through the Western Pacific aboard his Rawson 30 ft sloop. If you look closely, you can still see some of his
penciled course lines.
On the framed original, the leaded glass was salvaged from the galley
area of a partially submerged fishing boat on the Petaluma (CA) River. The frame was made from kiln dried Tennessee
Cherry Wood.

| Always Ready, Always There- acrylic PRIVATE COLLECTION |
This is my rendition of the 41 foot utility
boat that is considered the general workhorse at many of the Coast Guard's multi-mission units. She is designed to operate
under moderate weather and sea conditions where her speed and maneuverability make her an ideal platform for a variety
of missions.
