In the Mist captures the quiet stillness of a sailing boat emerging through a veil of haze, suspended between water and sky. Gill Storr layers paint and texture over a deconstructed photographic base, creating a surface that feels weathered, delicate, and alive with atmosphere.

The muted palette and softened forms draw the viewer into the scene, evoking the mystery of shifting light and the hushed calm of sailing through morning fog. As with much of Gill’s boat-inspired work, the painting carries both a sense of movement and contemplation — a meditation on journeys, transitions, and the elemental pull of the sea.

A strikingly serene piece, In the Mist demonstrates Gill’s ability to blend realism with abstraction, transforming a fleeting moment on the water into a timeless reflection of nature’s beauty and power.
