  "Low Tide at Rich's Wharf"  6X8 Oil on Copper  SOLD  Framed in pale gold wood!  Shipped for free!

     It was a very nice day yesterday!  I sat in my car and comfortably painted at Rich's Wharf in Bass Harbor.  I added seagulls and lobstermen in the background.  This was a fun painting!  I really learned painting those lobstertraps on location.  I had always painted the trap wires darker in value.  Really there are some areas the trap wire lighter in value.  I had fun painting the ground under the boats.  I left a lot of copper shining through.  Emile Gruppe wrote in his book on painting to try to have red's complement, green, around the area to please the eye.  Luckily the red boat was painted green inside.  I also painted the ground with a bit of greens too.  Cute little painting with lots to look at and discover.

Have a great day!
