Kathleen Daughan Casco Bay Paintings

Wolfe Neck Winter 1

Watercolor, 4x6

I've been painting watercolor sketches from my car because it's still very cold on Casco Bay. My friends and I went up to the bridge at Wolfe Neck Farm in South Freeport the other day. This was painted from the car. It was a beautiful day even though still cold and the view was as beautiful as ever. That's Osprey Island in Casco Bay. The sky was especially gorgeous, blue and yellow, which I hope I've captured here. This little watercolor sketch is available on my website, the sketches I have been doing are only $25.00. Go to www.kathleendaughan.com to purchase.

Passages: Phippsburg 3 (Wood Island)

10x10 oil on panel, sold

A reader has given me some interesting information about the Phippsburg paintings. This is Big Wood Island on the right and Little Wood on the left. Good fishing in the passage between which is what fascinated me about this scene. Turns out John Marin painted here in 1914. His painting "Big Wood Island" is a classic John Marin and was recently shown at the Portland Museum of Art. Very nice article about all this by Bob Keyes in the Portland Press Herald on Aug 15, 2010.
This painting was sold at the Black Frame auction but prints of it are available at Fine Art America. Link over on the right.

Reed State Park

Reid State Park 1, 4x4 oil on panel, sold

Reid State Park 2, 4x4 oil on panel, sold

Reid State Park has wonderful rocky coasts and a beautiful beach. The best of Maine all in one place. No wonder it's so popular. I've included these pictures even though they have been sold because prints and cards are available at Fine Art America. See the link to Fine Art America over on the righthand side bar.

Phippsburg

Phippsburg 1, 4x4 oil on panel, available

Phippsburg 2, 5x5 oil on panel, sold

You can see these islands from West Point in Phippsburg which is pretty much at the northern most point of Casco Bay, Small Point is just over to the left of this view. A bit of a drive to get there but an absolutely gorgeous spot.

Richmond Island

Richmond Island 4, 5x5 oil on panel, unframed, ready to hang

Richmond Island 2, 6x6 oil on canvas, framed

Technically Richmond Island is not in Casco Bay but it is just around the corner. It's an island I love to paint from Two Lights State Park which is just at the entrance to the bay.
