(Photo retaken at night after masts added)
This painting was created using my own photo references for the boats and another photo reference from a book I've had for over five years for the harbor. The man doing the repairs in the forward mast was from a trip to Key West in February 2010. I knew when I took his picture way up high where the seagulls perch, I would be using it in a future painting. Sketched and drawn this summer, I didn't get to work on it until yesterday. See my blog posting for the process from start to finish of this painting. Another one painted into midnight.
