COVE'S EDGE, MAINE

| COVE'S EDGE, MAINE 8x8, unframed oil on gessobord plein air painting Click here to purchase For two glorious weeks I rented a cottage in Cushing, Maine. This was my view from the lawn of the cottage I found it glorious and painted on the property several times. Floating in the water is Rockweed which at low tide one can clearly see is attached to the rocks. Cushing Peninsula is the peninsula on which the Olson House is located that very site of Andrew Wyeth's most famous painting CHRISTINA'S WORLD Across this cove from my cottage and this painting is the home of Andrew Wyeth...one of his homes Andrew died in 2009 and is buried in the Olson family cemetery. Why did he choose this spot? No one knows for sure but we can say for sure he loved and painted the Olson House and its occupants for many many summers. |
