Pilgrim, Islesford, Maine


I think I might title this one, 'Once Again,' although I like the name of the boat herself, 'Pilgrim.' I liked the color possibilities in the faded yellow of the boat, the maroon below her water line, all the greenery of the trees and yard surrounding the boat. This scene was up the road from where we stayed on Little Cranberry Island.

The lettering on the stern and a number of other details I'll save as the final stage of this painting. For now I'm just trying to get the larger areas of color right.
