#2106 "Southampton and Scubbys Bluff Fishing Fleet"

From 7:30 am Sunday May 27th, 2018 on Scubby's Bluff on the north bank of the Saugeen River..
On Sunday morning I set up at Scubby's Point overlooking the Saugeen and the fishing fleet awaiting the participants from the Southampton Art School to arrive. I have painted the fishing boat "Just In Time" many times before. The fishing turtle-style boat is pretty unique. This particular boat rarely moves so it is always in time. I enjoy the way the reflections of the boats and the far shore plays across the rippled surface of the Saugeen River.

The participants arrived as I was finishing this painting so they could see that stage of the work. It is just as important to know when to stop. I do multiple demonstrations while teaching a class and try never to let a moment of daylight get by. This was the first demonstration piece for the Southampton Art School's Wind Waves and Weather 2018. We had a full and eager list of participants.
 For this and much more art...
