Giant Steps

I painted this scene on Bailey Island Maine at a place called Giant Steps. I painted from the same spot that Frederick Waugh used to paint from.

Bailey Island Lobster Pound

Just north of Portland Maine, there are a number of islands that jut out into Casco Bay, and among these is one called Bailey Island. It was here that I painted this view of Peter Rodger's Lobster Pound. Peter Rodgers was a man that was larger than life- as authentic a Maine lobsterman as there ever was- a character out of Kipling or Stevenson.
