Notes
Artist's statement in an envelope adhered to the reverse.
He was a handsome chap, his rugged features softened by a quiet introspective charm. Once a sailor, his arms and chest were a tapestry of tattoos – delicate roses blooming in vivid shades, each one telling a silent story of distant shores and whispered memories. Though he spoke little, his contemplative gaze often drifted to the horizon.
They meet at the harbour.
