"Water and Wood" - When I first held the buoy in my hands I was taken with the grace and beauty of the simple object as well as the lovely, evident pattern the grain of the wood.  I thought of the hand work of the maker of this object and the natural beauty of Maine, where the pines meet the water's edge.  In painting the buoy I explored all of the colors of the water and reflected light as I followed the pattern of the wood grain.
