This morning we took the “Cat”–a huge catamaran ferry– from Portland to Yarmouth NS. Since everybody had to be at the pier by 7:00 a.m. a lot of people slept for a good part of the five hour trip. I had a rare opportunity to do quick sketches of several people who weren’t moving around–perfect models. Now we’re in the tiny town of Lunenburg, off to Cape Breton tomorrow. I keep thinking we won’t have an Internet connection at the next hotel but so far so good.
Well, these two played a board game before they nodded off.

We’re in Brunswick, ME now, on our way to Nova Scotia so I probably won’t be able to blog for a while. Went to the Portland Museum yesterday–a really impressive collection, with a special exhibit of the work of Harrison Bird Brown–a new discovery for me. And then we visited a wonderful gallery here in Brunswick. Every time I go to a museum it makes me wild to get back into my studio to experiment. (I look at art greedily for things I can use.) My hope is that the weather will be good enough to do some painting on this trip. Everything I see here in Maine looks like a painting.
