Waterfront 2
The second in a couple of doodles I did the
other morning while waiting for a setting to be arranged, and a model to show
up, and for her to find a comfortable pose, for the rest of the day.
The first doodle was included in a previous
post as “Waterfront 1”.
I was thinking of old waterfront villages that started
with the lumber trade, then fishing, and then attempted to survive catering to
cottagers and tourists. I remember the old warehouses and dilapidated docks
where outboard motorboats once tied. It’s what I remember as a kid when kids
were free to explore. Of course these places have changed since then, those that have survived. The docks now hold large mobile floating homes pretending
to be seafaring yachts. They rarely go anywhere.

This is great....I have been thinking of using ink,too! And you know, water front and boats are on my mind right now...I am going to visit Southhampton as soon as I get a nice ,sunny Sunday!
ReplyDeleteand again my comment didn't stick or maybe you haven't read it yet, I'm confused
ReplyDeleteYou captured it perfectly! I saw exactly what your words described prior to reading them.
ReplyDeleteArti: It would be nice to be near water and see a boat or two. Unfortunately the water around here has turned to ice, and the boats have been pulled out of the lakes until spring.
ReplyDeleteLorraine: Your comment here is all I have received. I assume you said something nice.. Thank you
Wine and Words, Annie: It feels good to know there is a shared vision here. There are so many small waterfront places like this along the Great Lakes. I can imagine it is similar along your coast.
Thank you
extraordinary is the way I'd express it everytime, but I don't want to be boring
ReplyDeleteThank you. You could never be boring.
