Maine Fishing Shack

I wish I could remember the exact town in Maine where I snapped this photo, but it was a lovely area with the afternoon sun slanting across the landscape.  I was taken with this little fishing building, with the boats pulled in for the day.  This watercolor painting is 8.5" high by 11.5" wide, done on 140# Arches watercolor paper.  Hope you enjoy it and think about our warmer weather to come.
