A Lovely Day to Drift - Original Oil Painting (5” x 7”)

A Lovely Day to Drift — Original Oil Painting (5” x 7”)

This original 5” x 7” oil painting captures the quiet joy of setting sail on a sunlit day, when the breeze is gentle and time seems to slow over open water. A Lovely Day to Drift is an ode to freedom and stillness, to the rhythm of waves against the hull and the wide expanse of sky overhead. A reminder of how beautiful it can feel to drift, unhurried, and let the day carry you where it will.

Painted by hand using Geneva oils on linen, this one-of-a-kind work is professionally finished and set in a custom pine floater frame crafted by an experienced American framer. The frame features a clean ¼-inch face moulding and a ¾-inch depth, allowing the painting to sit flush for a sleek, modern profile that complements both traditional and contemporary interiors.

Frame finishes are available in painted white; espresso gel-stain (“Java”); or natural pine (unfinished). The unfinished option lets the raw character of the wood shine through—or gives you the freedom to apply your own finish to match your home and style.

Compact and versatile, this painting is perfect for a gallery wall, bedside table, or cozy corner—anywhere you’d like to invite in the peace and poetry of life on the water.
