Reconnaissance in Maine!

Aaaah, so many pictures! Last weekend I was up in Maine doing reconnaissance on traditional boatyards like at Billings Diesel & Marine in Stonington and Benjamin River Marine in Brooklin. I  actually stayed there longer than I had previously anticipated because the weather was so gorgeous. Who knows when I'd be back! Funny story though, I was running out of supplies! With no where nearby to buy paint, I grew kind of frantic. Luckily, I met a younger painter studying in Maine and she sold me some of her paints and panels. She was so nice.  

Look at the pretty pictures!!
