Blue Laundry Day

Another wonderful scene from Maine; sunshine, great shadows, beautiful clapboard house.  This was a quick study.  The blues and greens against the stark white was what interested me and made me want to reach for those yummy pastels.  I can't wait until I go back in September.  I never get tired of it!

I painted this scene about two years ago when I was on Monhegan Island and have always wanted to paint it again.  The other day, I couldn't get inspired and wasn't ready to finish the painting I had started, so I began to paint this scene again from the photo I had taken.  This is a smaller version, and I have to say, I like this one better.  It might be because I've had so much more time to practice the art of pastels, but for whatever reason, I am more and more convinced that time does wonders in all aspects of life!
