STORY

John Austin’s view of Dazzle resting on the sand, its weathered turquoise hull casting a long shadow beneath a pale blue sky. A narrow ribbon of water winds past the stern. The soft whites and sandy tones carry through to the white-plank frame, handmade by Austin and original to the painting.
