Floating Wharf at Welshpool

This 9x12 oil on panel is the third painting I did last Wednesday, this time at Welshpool, on Campobello Island.  It represents a floating dock/warehouse, which appears to be connected to the salmon farm out in the bay.  Located in the bay were several large, flat, round cages, which we were told were for raising salmon.  This painting was done late in the afternoon at high tide.  My wife and I were on Campobello Island attending a Road Scholar program on Eleanor and Franklin Roosevelt, wonderfully presented by Linda and Robert Godfrey.

Herring Cove

A 12x16 oil on panel view from the high point at Herring Cove on Campobello Island.  I learned later that I was standing near the spot where Eleanor Roosevelt sat against a tree in 1962 for the last photo taken of her before she died.  She loved this location, and I can understand why.
