The Point Reyes, Inverness

The Point Reyes, Inverness,
dip pen and ink and watercolors, 9x12in.

I haven't been able to find the history of this abandoned fishing boat. It has been photographed and painted many times. While I was there trying to hold my dip pen steady against the wind several photographers rushed by, setting up filters, stabilizers and other technical aids to capture the view. The light was not dramatic as other times and the wind was so strong that it was difficult to walk straight. I colored the shadows on site but I finished it at home.
