I painted this on Matinicus Island in Maine, twenty-two miles off the coast.

     Over the three days I worked on it, I had a day so clear the horizon was knife-sharp. The next day, the fog was so thick I couldn't see fifteen feet out (and the air service couldn't bring our plumbing parts). 

      On the third  day, we expected more fog, so when it cleared in the afternoon, it was a special gift and I finished pulling the last of the tape off on the deck, and I stayed out until thick clouds started rolling back in for what's predicted to bring high seas and rain. There's no leaving the island by air or boat for the next couple of days. That's okay, I've still got paint and the plumbing parts arrived.
