Thought I would post some photos of Plymouth Harbor to commemorate this year's Thanksgiving holiday!
(I may have posted some of these photos last year?)
"Sail Boats Off Cape Cod" Acrylic 20" x 24" Canvas |
"Bug Light Plymouth Harbor" Oil 16" x 20" Canvas |
Replica of the Mayflower. Ship that took Pilgrims to the New World in 1620 |
Seeing humpback whales off Plymouth is a wonderful sight! |
"Bug Light" Popular light house in Plymouth Bay! I painted this lighthouse many times and in many ways! |
Statue Of Massasoit! Great Chief Of The Wampanoags. The local tribe that helped the Pilgrims survive that very dangerous and difficult first winter! This beautiful statue stands high on a hill overlooking Plymouth Harbor!
(This famous statue was made by Cyrus E. Dallin, the same talented sculptor who created "Appeal To The Great Spirit" which stands in front of the Museum Of
Fine Arts in Boston!)

Bonjour cher Michael,
ReplyDeleteJ'admire avec délice deux merveilleuses toiles... tout comme je contemple vos belles photos.
J'aime ces voiliers qui combattent les vagues et se dressent tant bien que mal... Il y a un mouvement extraordinaire et fascinant.
La peinture avec le phare rassure et apaise le regard. J'ai toujours trouvé les phares attachants et mystérieux.
Bravo pour cette prise ! Quel gros poisson !... Cela doit être grisant, dites-moi !
Merci pour cette publication enrichissante.
Je vous souhaite une joyeuse Thanksgiving.
Gros bisous ♡
I love seeing your older paintings, a great way to be thankful!

Michael I am very thankful for your wonderful Thanksgiving post! I hope you had a wonderful time with your family and friends!
ReplyDeleteI particularly love your painting of the "Bug Light" - what a unique little lighthouse it is!
Both of the statues are mesmerising - such a talented man who sculpted them. They both have an epic feel to them.

A great day was had by all! Thank you!
I am glad you like "Bug Light!" I have painted that little lighthouse many, many times. On many a fishing trip we pass the light! So beautiful in person. Especially with the ocean waves crashing on rocks! Love the colors too!
I thought you would enjoy seeing both statues. Especially done by same artist!
Now off to your blog and check out your wonderful art!
Take care Cobber!
