Last Cribstone Bridge - Bailey Island, Maine

 Bailey Island, Maine "The Cribstone Bridge"

24x36" Oil on Stretched Canvas Painting

$1200.00

Here's what on my easel today - it's in the process of drying. I was going for a more impressionistic take....I wanted the painting to have a looser feel or as my Mom would say "Mr. Clean" look. I tried not to get to detailed, but that is always a challenge for me. Even the houses are simple in the background.

You can find some information about the bridge here.
