This scene in Lower Prospect is typical of many small villages that dot the Nova Scotia coastline. Lobster traps are stacked along the wharf waiting to be loaded aboard fishing vessels. Minutes after we stopped to walkabout, the Atlantic fog rolled in and dramatically changed the mood (and temperature). Next time we come here I would love to paint a foggy scene.
In this piece, I applied water-soluble graphite, ink, charcoal and a limited watercolour palette. Hot pressed paper allowed a smoother flow of ink yet made washes in the sky and water challenging.
