Artwork description:

Bayards Cove
Reduction Linocut

Bayards Cove captures the quiet beauty of evening as the sun sets over Dartmouth’s historic waterfront. The stillness of the scene is filled with atmosphere — soft ripples of water reflecting the last light of day, a small wooden boat resting on cobblestones, and the gentle glow of a lamppost beside old harbourside houses.

Created as a reduction linocut, this piece celebrates both light and structure — the contrast of golden hues against deep blues, and the balance of calm water beside strong architectural lines. Each layer is hand-carved and printed, revealing the artist’s deep appreciation for coastal heritage and the moments of peace found by the sea.

This artwork invites you to linger at the water’s edge, where time slows, and light and memory meet.
