Announcing the New Head of the Charles Regatta Watercolor Print

In my twenties, I found myself swept up in the vibrant energy of Boston’s Head of the Charles Regatta. I can still feel the crisp fall air, the electric buzz of the crowds lining the Charles River, and the breathtaking sight of rowers slicing through the water with precision and grace. The trees, ablaze with fiery reds, oranges, and golds, framed the scene, while spectators cheered from bridges and riverbanks. I cherish those memories.

Fast forward to today, and the Head of the Charles has woven its way back into my life in the most unexpected way. My daughter is now dating a rower who has competed in this iconic event. Held every fall in Boston, the Head of the Charles Regatta is the world’s largest 3-day rowing event, drawing athletes and spectators from across the globe. It’s a celebration of strength, teamwork, and the beauty of the season, set against the stunning backdrop of the Charles River.

Inspired by those memories and this newfound connection, I enjoyed trying to capture the essence of the regatta in my latest watercolor painting. The result is a vibrant, dynamic piece that brings the rowers to the forefront, their oars cutting through the water as the fall foliage glows in the background. The people on the bridge, cheering and watching, add a sense of community and shared excitement. This artwork is more than a painting—it’s a snapshot to those unforgettable moments that make the Head of the Charles so special.
