A framed coastal artwork depicting rowboats and a sailboat along a shoreline with marsh grass. The piece is signed and dated '73 by the artist and features a gold-tone frame with matting. Britton specialized in original watercolours, occasionally utilizing mixed techniques such as serigraph or ink-line foundations beneath the paint layers. His work gained notable traction in the early 1970s, with multiple documented and family-held pieces. His artwork typically features historic or scenic Canadian locations. Two of his most prominent subjects include the historic Gooderham Flatiron Building in Toronto and rural landscapes, such as scenes from Prince Edward Island.
