A Little More of Waterfall Bay


6" x 8" oil on canvas on board
$100.00 + $10. s/h


This piece is from the same rainy afternoon as the last post;  although, it seemed like morning.  With 17 1/2 hours of light each day, we'd be up until after midnight, having dinner after 10:00, and often sleeping until whenever we wanted.  Our schedule was way off.  But, that's another great thing about a trip, it doesn't matter.


This is the boat we spent a week on, the Glacier.  We would always anchor in a calm bay at night, and venture around in the day, usually in a 12 foot hard, rubber skiff.


 I took this photo from the skiff, (you can see the rope at the front) when we were motoring from one beach combing spot to another.  I couldn't believe a humpback whale was right in front of me.  There is no known report of a humpback knocking over a skiff!
