Eighth Summer in Maine – Part II

Foggy days are my favorite time in Stonington.  It is quiet, gray, water rises and fall, fog rolls in and out; everything is so poetic and mysterious.  Friday was one of those days.  I went back to my favorite ledge in the morning.  I remember while setting up my easel, there was not much to see.  Fog has enveloped most of the surroundings.  However, it was not dense and it kept on changing like someone playing peek-a-boo.  I loved every minute of it.

I am back from a painting trip in Maine.  This is my eighth summer in Stonington. The first week was a painting workshop with Jon Imber.  There were 19 other artists in the group.  It is inspiring to see everyone’s work and to have a critique with Jon.  I always come back with more energy and motivation to keep working.

Labor Day 2013

I fell in love with Northampton when I first visited Smith College Museum of Art in April 2010.  I have been painting in this town ever since.

This year’s trips to Northampton has been limited.  Labor day weekend was the perfect excuse.  I went back to the painting spot where I started a painting in June.

The weather was cloudy and was very humid.  Besides few scattered showers in the afternoon, the light was constant.  The painting only had a light layer of color, so it was easy to change it to a cloudy atmosphere.The houses I was painting have beautiful lines of wires and pipes leading from one house to the next, unique windows at each floors.  It was a few hours of battle to choose what to paint and what to leave out.

The painting is almost done this morning, however, it may need some finishing touches.  Looking forward to my next visit.
