Gregory Sievers says, “I spent four years in the United states Navy and thought I had all of the sea I wanted. There was an old story that went; When I got out of the Navy I put my Oars over my shoulder and walked inland. When someone asked; “What is that on your shoulder?” I knew I was Home.
“Funny thing about the sea however, is that after a while I could hear it calling. It is a supreme challenge to capture something on canvas that is continually moving. To capture the roll of the sea and the crash of the waves. Or to convey the tall ships in an era when “Ships were made of wood and men were made of steel.” These elements convey a romantacism that has truly become a part of me.”
