Howland's Landing from New Open Space

The Town of Duxbury bought the land next to Howland's Landing and has done a nice job creating a neat open space that overlooks the ocean inlet to the south.   There are several large, mature trees, picnic tables and benches.   Although this is a fairly new park, the number of people we saw revealed that the word is spreading about this fabulous spot.


The land on the far shore is Kingston and Rocky Nook and the four large wind turbines that border Plymouth can be seen in the distance.

Howland's Landing Right - In Progress
The second painting was the stretch of shore to the right of the first painting, almost like a continuation.   See series below.   If I had given that more thought, I could have made the horizon line be at the same level on both paintings.   It would have made a nicer diptyck.
