I'd like to say this is a new painting, but it's from a few summers ago. We've been sailing in between trying to fix one of the heads on our boat. It's ugly, stinky, thankless and gross work. But a must. So not much time to sit a sketch.
I have determined however, that sketching is a must too. So I'm bringing materials aboard for our next adventure. In the meantime, this is one of several lovely summer homes on North Haven Island that we see on our walk ashore to stretch our legs.
I focus on the flag here. It's a reminder for me that the fight for Democracy is alive and for me, starting to really kick back up again. Many of us have no idea what it's like to fight for civil rights. We haven't had to. We're learning now.
