Painting by Newfoundland Artist Graham Matthews
Lobster Pots with Rope
Oil on Canvas Painting
16x20
By Graham Matthews
This painting "Lobster Pots with Rope" was included in my solo show at JL Gallery - Out of the Bay. It actually depicts only a small portion of a huge stack of lobster pots (or lobster traps) seen during a trip to a coastal Newfoundland port.
The flowing forms of the rope contrast with the lobster pot structure, making the painting almost abstract looking.
