Assemblage - Urban Environment

Part 1 of this painting project was to explore the theme of " The Urban Environment " incorporating found man-made textural surfaces. My assemblage took on a nautical look with my objects and design. 
Part 2, a painting of a cropped section of the assemblage recreating the surface of the assemblage with paint only.  
This 25 x 25 cm acrylic on canvas is another way to create an abstract painting with no obvious subject matter. 
Can you see " Nautical History " Here?
