"Dawson" is a captivating artwork measuring 9 x 12 inches, executed in colored pencil on blue colored paper. The piece presents a serene scene where a solitary figure rows through a sea of lush, green lily pads, creating a moment frozen in time. The individual, seen from the back, is dressed in a white shirt and a white baseball cap with red trim worn backwards, emphasizing a casual yet purposeful demeanor.

The boat appears to glide forward, with the oar caught in mid-motion, capturing the gentle, rhythmic movement of rowing. The expansive view reveals an endless stretch of lily pads, which eventually meet a distant line of trees under a clear blue sky adorned with soft, wispy white clouds. The scene is infused with vibrant greens and blues, evoking a calming and tranquil atmosphere that invites the viewer to pause and reflect.

"Dawson" is inspired by the memory of a loved one and reflects on the themes of loss and serenity. This powerful narrative is part of the "Peter Brooks Collection," based on a photo provided by a family member. The detailed and meticulous process of creating this piece, combined with its emotional resonance, makes it a unique and heartfelt tribute.
