Russ Kramer - USA
A Million Dollar Breeze - 44 x 27 inches, oil
Russ Kramer worked as a commercial artist.
His work has a very strong sense of design.
Peter Egeli - USA
13 x 28
It's interesting;
most of the marine artists I like are American.
Maybe they are better than other nationalities
at getting images of their work,
or their countrymen's work, onto the internet,
which is where I found most of them.

For those interested in astrological sybolism,
the horoscope for the founding of the United States
shows Sun in Cancer, which is the astrological sign associated with
the sea and ships.
