Description:

When I painted Hollyhock Harbour the Watercolour reminded my Father-in-law of a poem he had learned as a child. "Nancy's Pride" was written by Canadian poet Bliss Carman. These are the first few lines

"The Nancy's Pride"
On the long slow heave of a lazy sea,
To the flap of an idle sail,
The Nancy's Pride went out on the tide;
And the skipper stood by the rail.

All down, all down by the sleepy town,
With the hollyhocks a-row
In the little poppy gardens,
The sea had her in tow.
