Coastal scene - beach or harbor cottage - featuring blue, red, green, fabric rocking chairs on a traditional white picket porch enjoying the pier.

22.5" wide by 18.5" tall.

This is just delightful. Not complex, not heavy, not formal - but still very nice and one to be proud of for sure.

River cottage? Check.

Beach house in a small coastal town? Check.

Oyster or seafood motifs? Check.
