From the Captain's Log
I picked this up at a sale in Promontory Point, right in that tunnel under Lakeshore Drive. You know, the place where you can hear the waves crash and the wind howl. It's a mixed media piece, and it caught my eye immediately. Honestly, I'm only selling it because I'm out of wall space.
The canvas is quite large, around 36 by 48 inches. I remember the sign on it saying "NEVER GIVE UP," which seems like a good motto, whether you're facing a storm at sea or just trying to survive another Chicago winter.

How the bidding works (the short version of the Articles)
The first bid starts a 7-day clock. When it hits zero, the top bidder wins.
Enter your max. The price only climbs as far as needed to keep you in front, so you may win for less.
Each bid has to beat the price by a small step. Ties go to whoever bid first.
Some pieces carry a reserve, a minimum price kept secret. If bidding ends below it, the piece doesn't sell. The box tells you if it's met.
A bid in the last 5 minutes resets the clock to 5 minutes. No sniping.
Win, and we email a pay link. You have 3 days to pay. Pickup is at the South Loop dock.
A bid is a promise to buy. Please bid only if you mean it.
An estimate from the photos and description, not an appraisal and not a reserve. Bid what it is worth to you; the sea sets no prices and neither do we.
A large unframed canvas, approximately 36 by 48 inches, featuring a dark figure in silhouette before a bank of windows. The scene includes a ceiling fan and a prominent sign on the right wall that reads “NEVER GIVE UP.” The piece uses mixed media, with scrawled marks across the foreground adding texture and depth. No frame is present.
This artwork was acquired from a sale at Promontory Point, beneath the familiar winds of Lakeshore Drive. It’s a reminder that perseverance is as crucial on the lakefront as it is on the open sea.
