Day 7: First Sail

As the summer people arrive in Maine, we begin to see an amazing number of sailboats--always beautiful with their white sails against the blue water. This is a quick oil sketch of just such a scene at 5 Islands. The little boat is a tiny skiff--probably just 6 feet long--this provides transportation to land for the de-boating sailors. It reminds me why I am not, nor will I ever be brave enough to attempt sailing!
