Artist Comments

Sometimes I like to give myself a challenge when choosing a subject matter for my paintings. I found these fishing boat fenders tied to the pillar of a fishing pier very interesting because of all the different textures (wood pier, rusty chains, and rubbery boat fenders) present. I thought they would make an interesting challenge trying to paint all that texture. One does get a sense of texture from the detail in this artwork.

Other paintings that were a study of texture are:

What are boat fenders?

A boat fender is a type of bumper or cushioned buffer used to prevent a boat or other watercraft from bumping into a dock, pier, or another boat causing damage to its hull. They are often constructed of rubber, foam, or plastic, and they come in various shapes and sizes depending on their use.

Artist Comments

In the summer of 1999, my husband Robert and I navigated his 36-foot sailboat along the Intracoastal Waterway (ICW) from Florida to Virginia. Robert, a military serviceman, was transferring from Naval Air Station Jacksonville to Naval Station Norfolk. The journey presented us with many fascinating sights along the waterway, offering ample chances to capture photographs for my future paintings. “Along The ICW,” depicting a stranded shrimp boat, was inspired by a photo I snapped on that voyage.

About The ICW

The Intracoastal Waterway is a 3,000-mile waterway network comprising inland rivers, channels, and canals along the eastern and southeastern coasts of the United States. It is split into the Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway and the Gulf Intracoastal Waterway. The waterway includes both man-made canals and natural water bodies like inlets, saltwater rivers, bays, and sounds.

The ICW stretches from Boston, MA, down the Atlantic Seaboard, around Florida’s southern tip, and along the Gulf Coast to Brownsville, TX. Its main function is to offer a secure and navigable route for light commercial and personal pleasure vessels, providing a safer alternative to the perils of open sea travel.

Details & Description

Title: Rowboat at the Pier
Size: 12″ w x 12″ h
Canvas Type: Gallery Wrap Stretched Canvas
Frame: Unframed; Ready to Hang
Signed: On the front 
COA: Signed Certificate of Authenticity

A one-of-a-kind painting of an old wooden rowboat moored at a pier with lily pads and water reflections. It captures that nostalgic feeling of summer. Hand-painted and signed in the lower left corner by marine artist Teresa Bernard.

Skillfully created by hand on a quality gallery wrap canvas, Rowboat at The Pier extends its composition around the sides of the canvas. When an artwork is painted on this kind of canvas, a frame is not necessary for exhibition; yet it will still look amazing if you decide to have it framed. An official Certificate of Authenticity (COA) is included.

Artist Comments

Artists are often inspired by their surroundings. We live out in the country. One of our neighbors lives down the road and around the corner from us. He has a large pond near the road with a small dock and a rowboat tied to it. Across from him is another neighbor who also has a pond near the road. It’s a smaller pond with lily pads. We pass by these two ponds almost every day on our way to and from our place to the nearby towns. The inspiration for this painting came from our neighbor’s ponds.

Your Feedback

“The softness of this painting makes me happy on the inside. Really aesthetically pleasing to look at!” — @TheKeyofB, Gab

Details & Description

Title: Bow of the Boat
Size: 18″ w x 18″ h
Canvas Type: Gallery Wrap Stretched Canvas
Frame: Unframed; Ready to Hang
Signed: On the front 
COA: Signed Certificate of Authenticity

A nautical-themed painting of a wooden boat. The boat is completely isolated from the viewer, who can only see the boat’s bow and the water. This painting exhibits strong contrasts between light and dark, as well as warmth and cool. The warmth of the sun is felt as it strikes the bow of the boat and casts a dark shadow in the cool water below. Hand-painted and signed by marine artist Teresa Bernard in the lower left side.

Bow of The Boat is a unique oil painting that does not need to be mounted in a frame before it is put on view. It is hand-painted on artist-grade gallery wrap stretched canvas which allows the composition to extend around the sides of the canvas. However, if you prefer to have it framed, it will look spectacular! A custom Certificate of Authenticity (COA) is included.

Artist Comments

Artists are frequently influenced by other artists whose artwork they admire. The inspiration for Bow of the Boat came from an art teacher years ago. He enjoyed doing paintings of boats. In several of his paintings, he would crop out the rest of the boat to draw attention to a specific part or area of a boat, just as I did in this one.
