Standish Shore
9x12 oil on panel
I painted this view many years ago when these old buildings were still on the land. Across the far shore is the old chimney at Plymouth Cordage, where ropes were made.
It's officially summer and we're at the tail end of a heat wave.
Stay cool everyone.
Our backyard oasis
I went to the studio today with the idea being to paint something from a photo I had hanging around the studio. Anything, and not procrastinate and look at every photo and become overwhelmed. This was done from a photo of a painting I did years ago of an old house and a little shed on the shore of Duxbury's Bay Road. In the distance is Cordage Park, an old rope making factory in Plymouth from the ship building days. Mission accomplished.
Don and I arrived home last Sunday to crisp sea air and lilacs in full bloom! It is great to be home :)
