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.
