Burger Yacht "Chanticleer." Owned by Frances Langford and Ralph Evinrude. The glamorous singer and entertainer Ms. Langford appeared alongside James Cagney, Bob Hope, Perry Como, Don Ameche, Jackie Gleason, and other stars. She is most famous for the song “I’m in the Mood for Love” which she wrote and popularized.
Each piece of my art has historical significance, so there is always a unique and fascinating story to tell about the painting. In today’s world of mass produced “sameness” there was a time when we created modes of transportation that were functional but also works of art. I take these unique and beautiful objects and place them where they were seen and shined in the past.
