Coastal Maine

Coastal Maine is such a strong experience in the psych of those who have experienced it. The smell of the ocean is so intoxicating, particularly if you have been away for some period of time. The visual and emotional associations we carry with us in our daily lives.

Recently, I was sorting through volumes of pictures I have held onto for some time when I came upon this image. The composition and simple earth colors stopped me in my tracks. Thus, I set this photograph aside and did a little watercolor inspired from this earlier this afternoon.

The ribbon of blue which is the ocean just seems to run off the page. Also, part of the spit of land projecting out in to the water disappears into the distant fog.
