Leaving Ship harbor

12x16 oil on hardborad

Some folks leaving ship harbor. The water had a strong green tinge to it. This little tree needed to go to the gym.

Lobster pots

9x12 oil on canvas panel

This is the fourth painting in a row that didn't come out well. I scrapped the first three. I'll have to check the old timers to see how they made it work. No worries though.

Tossing stones in the fjord

9x12 oil on canvas panel

Worked on some figures for this one. That's a life preserver that the kid in yellow is wearing. Have to touch up the water line on the left there, weave it into the water a bit.

Unloaded

Unloaded lobster boat over in Bass harbor.

mountain view from Bass harbor, Maine.

I liked the shape of the far mountains from this vantage point in Bass harbor, Maine.

Stone Barn on Mt. Desert Island

8x12 oil on hardboard

Took a shot at the barn. Didn't really get close on this one. So sad.

Tail end of Somes sound

8x10 oil on wood

This is facing north standing on Sound dr. ( i think ) If you look the other way you see Somesville and the sound. It's nice a peaceful, and i thought that even though there isn't a good subject standing out, i could still just paint it. It's dark woods on the left side.

Other side of the street

6x6 oil on hardboard

This is view if you turn around from yesterdays painting. 

Warm Bass Marsh

6x6 oil on hardboard

This is another view of Bass Harbor Marsh. Most folks paint facing the other way and in an  earlier post I did some. Studio painting.

Sargent drive tree

Tree along Sargent drive, looking towards Somesville. Got a little bit of lawn grass on the left edge.

Two pots and tomato

8x6 oil on wood

Tomato from mom's garden.

Mom's tomato and vase

8x6 oil on wood

Had to paint this funny shaped tomato and her cool greenish vase. The tomato is about 3 inchs long, a dinky one.

Back Beach

6x8 oil on wood

This is a little pebble beach off of Bass Harbor. Good weather today.

Trying to get landscapes to look better. Need to do about 200 more.

Bass Marsh Mountain view

6x8 oil on wood

Tried a fuller view of the mountains from the marsh.


Lobsters just cooked in baskets at Thurstons.

Bass marsh

6x8 oil on wood

By the side of the road painting. Cars zooming by and the Sun was out at last and it was hot. It's a little tricky to do these paintings when your used to the set up at home. The water here isn't this bright blue more dull in the painting.

Apple and pot

6x8 oil on canvas panel

Really under the weather on this one. That's supposed to be  a flower pot on it's side.

Cable Crossing
9x12 oil on canvas panel

This is down the road for my folks home. If you drive around Mt. Desert Island you'll pass right by here, about a mile from Acadia workshop center.
