Last Maine post - back to Paris tomorrow/demain je te promis. Do not unsubscribe svp!
Alison is my Maine food guide - provider of all the best, cheapest deals in the state of Maine -she could write a book. We go for the BEST seafood chowder on the planet - chock full of lobster, haddock, native baby shrimp. *Alison warns me not to order anything else until we have finished the chowder.
Naturalment I pay no attention whatsoever and order a clam roll, but it was not quite as good as Rockland's Sharpie's roll, which I ate in haste and forgot to shoot :(
This is the view at the Harbor View in South Thomaston...
And the interior view - tres shackesque non?
Some home-made tarts at a joint in Tenants Harbor...
Back to painting session last day with David Dewey. David has us look at Edward Hopper paintings...
The sky gets laid in first - yellow + blue...
Mixing up the grass greens on the palette - I'm heading out to buy some 'Leaf' green paint post-posting today. Absolutement!
David lays in the grass with a lot of mingling of various colors wet-on-wet. Don't forget to tilt your paper PBers!
The finished painting looking fresh and airy as a Maine daisy...
I paint a back-lite scene on the spot...
Voila!
PB reader Kris Johnson, an artist, invites us to a grand opening that night at Mars Hall Gallery in Tenants Harbor..
The gallery is swarming with Maine's upper crust and the silver bowl is full of shrimp - what's not to love?
Kris lives in the unpronounceable, Castelnau Magnoac in the Pyrenees, France...
But her painting looks a lot like the view at Harbor View..
This is Kris' unpronounceable French dog, named 'Bleu'That I can pronouce...
Paris a demain!
BONJOUR BLEU!
