This is a portion of a painting from April’s featured Artist- can you guess who it is?

“The painting is a study of my good friend and neighbor standing at his place of business.”- Don Stone, N.A. A 10X12 oil on canvas.

” I was as interested in the patterns of the foam returning to the sea, as I was of the sea coming to the shore.”- Don Stone, N.A. A 24X30 oil on canvas.

“Picking up sea glass on Swim Beach if a favorite pastime for many summer visitors.  For some islanders the glass is used to make beautiful ornaments, such as wreaths.” – Don Stone, N.A. A 16X20 oil on canvas.

“This is a painting of a young summer visitor picking day lilies for her mom.” – Don Stone, N.A. A 16 X 20 oil on canvas.

” I was fascinated by the raking light skimming across Gull Rock.”- Don Stone, N.A. A 30X40 oil on canvas.

“This was the inspiration for the larger painting “Late December Light, Gull Rock, Monhegan.”- Don Stone, N.A. Tomorrow check back to see Don’s larger image- “Late December Light, Gull Rock, Monhegan”.

“Winter Fishing” was done from Alfred’s boat looking at Lexi’s boat shortly after Trap Day. Ever since I first painted on Monhegan in 1956 and still today, I have challenged myself to find subject matter beyond the obvious.  I believe “Winter Fishing” exemplifies that challenge.”- Don Stone, N.A. A 30X40 oil on canvas.
