MECA Week-Feed You Soul -at Maine College of Art

 Just got home from a week painting in Maine. My goal was a painting a day, playing in Irish sessions (2) and sampling the local brews. I must say I accomplished them all.

Marshes and Big Skies

 Okatie Rive SC.

Dundee Creek , MD   I think I detect a theme here.

Googan"s Island , wolf neck. Maine

 

I am spending a week in Maine at MECA. my goal is a plein air  painting a day. The trick is finding what I want to paint. I drove to Freeport(and turned right for a couple of miles)  to find this island view.  oil 10x10in.

Bear Rock on Phelps Brook

  I love painting rocks and moving water as well as finding bright color in the landscape. On Phelps Brook I found both. I build up the colors and textures gradually with many layers of slightly different shades of color.  18x24in pastel  on blue sanded paper
