CAPTAIN BERT

This is a pastel portrait of Bert Felton. Bert was a well-loved member of our church who loved to tell people about the history of the lower Cape Fear region. From his boat, the Solomon T, he would give tours which were both entertaining and informative. Bert recently passed away. His boat no longer is docked in the Yacht Basin in Southport, NC. Becky, Bert's wife, was given the portrait. The portrait received the Peoples' Choice Award at the Art By The Shore Show (2015).
