Coastal Maine Botanical Gardens Plein Air Painting Day

Today was the Coastal Maine Botanical Gardens Plein Air Painting Day in Boothbay Harbor and the weather was great! About 60 artists participated and the gardens looked lovely. I was particularly taken with the wonderful sculptures and couldn't resist a scene that included this beautiful example, which gets a lot of attention from the visitors. It turns and flexes in the wind and the fronds are always moving. I hope I give a flavor of that in the painting. "Garden Scultpure" is a 6"X6" oil - SOLD.
