Sunrise, Penobscot Bay
I began this piece two years ago, when we still lived on San Juan Island, Washington, by painting the center panel with washes of Setacolor paints. It sat neglected until this summer, when I decided to turn it into this piece. The sun rises on America here in Maine, so I thought I’d do a riff on traditional feathered quilts in the sunrise and add some of the quintessential Maine coastal islands.
This quilt is “Journal” sized, that is, about the size of a piece of copy paper… in this case 10 1/4 by 11 3/4 inches. Available through Ducktrap Bay Trading Company here in Camden.
