Item Description
"Marblehead Harbor Panorama" by Sheila FarrenBillings
Medium: Acrylic Paint
Size: 19" x 8"
Artist Statement:
Marblehead Harbor Panorama is the 5th Cod I have donated to the Marblehead Festival of Arts. This Cod is based on my painting which won the People's Choice Award for the 2019 Festival Paint the Town event. I had intended to face Devereux Beach and paint all the people enjoying the sun. However, that morning was cold and drizzly and nobody was there! So I stood under the little shelter at the back of the beach, turned around and painted the harbor instead. It was one of those magical mornings when the clouds were heavy and dark, but a bit of light was breaking through them to make the water glow a luminous light green. That is the fun of painting en plein air; it is always surprising.
