"Doodlebug, Mayport"
Pastel on sanded Gatorfoam, 14x11
SOLD
This is view of one of the shrimp boats at Mayport. This particular view was taken from the ferry while crossing the St. Johns River. I have taken pictures of these boats several times over the years, but this one, taken some years ago, I found particularly appealing. The Doodlebug looks as if it has been recently painted, and the yellow band of the wheel house really sets it off.
This is a "quick" sketch done mostly with Rembrandt and NuPastels of self-sanded gatorfoam.
