  MONHEGAN ISLAND I
If you haven't visited Monhegan Island, 10 miles off the coast of Maine, you may travel there through my eyes.
Perhaps it will give you the desire to visit the island with many galleries and unique shops, and stay overnight at the charming inns.
The following day you may want to venture to the backside of  the island to catch the breathtaking view of the Atlantic from the highest cliffs on the Maine coast.





Basking in the Morning Light 
 
 The morning sun bathes the island in a warm glow.  The meadow is the
source of the islanders drinking water - a precious and protected area.

On Guard

A delightful addition to Monhegan Island were these new chicks
as they waddled around scurrying for food they put smiles on the
faces of many visitors to the island.

Busy Chick

 It was so much fun to watch the antics of the baby chicks as they scurried around the yard. they were moving targets to try to capture their gestures.
After much observation I painted very quickly.

Solstice

Racing against the loss of light as the longest day came to an end,
and the sun sank into the Atlantic, I splashed on paint not knowing
what the final results were until the next morning.
