| Rock Formations and More Crashing Surf |
This is the first of two paintings done on a beautiful day in October. I was painting out with a group of five other New England plein air painters. The rock formations we saw at Beavertail Light in Jamestown, RI were comprised of layers of shale and coal that are common in the Narragansett Bay area. I liked the rugged look of the rocky layers that had been worn down from the pounding surf. The tidal pools were helpful painting elements because they could be situated to enhance the painting design. In this painting I think they helped create a stronger abstract design quality.
