Commissions

Here's a commission of a cottage owned by my landlord here in Boothbay Harbor.  It's an old fashioned authentic summer cottage with lots of interesting angles.  Normally, I don't take house or boat commissions, but this one had some features that I liked, namely the overhanging porch and the railing.

Fall is setting in here in Maine and the weather has prevented me from going out to paint.  Luckily, I had done the preliminary sketch and gotten the line drawing on the watercolor paper earlier, so I could use them as a reference rather than go out on location.  Another reason to do a value sketch first!
