Last Day (5) of Painting in Maine

Today was our last day of painting with Steve Fleming and his students. Location - Birch Point Beach State Park - was lovely. I painted on these rocks and Bob set up on the beach

Steve's Demo of the scene below.

After we finished painting, we went to the

Farnsworth Museum and Gallery. They have paintings by three generations of Wyeths, N.C,

Andrew, and Jamie. It is interesting how similarly Andrew Wyeth painted Maine trees and rocks.
