This is 7 x 10 painted in plein air in Camden, Maine. I've been there many times, but I usually paint the boats in the harbor. I love the church steeple and the rocks in the harbor too.
I have always participated in the visual arts including watercolors, drawing and sketching, pen and ink, and photography. Since retiring from teaching I have devoted much of my time to watercolors, sometimes combining them with pen and ink or collage.
Watercolor is the perfect medium to capture the beauty that surrounds us. I love to travel, and sketch and paint wherever I go. Painting, especially on location, captures the spirit and life of the subject. I hope to continue doing that for a long time to come.

Looks good.
Very nice. A lot of things in this one. How long did it take?
Ron - Thank you.
Jeanne - This probably took me about 2 hours. I would have spent a bit more time on it, but my sister and her husband were waiting for me.
Next time have your sister and her husband do bug duty. They can stand there swatting them away. And keep them busy while you paint.
