I was fortunate enough to spend a few days on a painting trip to Maine with David Curtis and Tom Heinsohn, where we were joined in painting by Bill Curtis and a few of his artist friends. Inspired by some true but disparaging remarks by David about my work of late, I was determined to get back on track. There is too much glare on the photo to show the painting to its greatest advantage, I will retake as soon as I can. Regardless, in spite of the extremely junky board I was painting on, I was pretty pleased with the result.
