Shot Guns and Lobster wars

Sea Battles,

Yes that's what's going on in my

neck of the coast..

















Monhegan Island - Artist's haven from 1892



Yes there are Lobstermen at war with each other. It's on Tv and in the papers.

Beautiful and peaceful Monhegan Island
Here are three paintings I did of Monhegan.










.


















Real shoot outs.










Some Notable residents and simi-residents of Monhegan Island are:



George Bellows- Artist
Abraham Bogdanove from 1918- 1946
Jon Bogdanove Comic book artist
Kate and Tom Chappell
Clorlis Carroll -Artist
Jay Connaway -Artist 1920-1930

I can hear the Lobster boats starting their engines about 5:30 Am.
Sometimes the sun is just coming up and the fog can be so heavy
it's not sea smoke just heavy fog.










That reminds me today 3 girlfriends came by and we all went looking for
SEA LAVENDER it is just about pasted. I couldn't go because of my foot
problem. They picked me a big bunch. Here's the photo of it.































They sink boats ,cut lobster traps
& fight and shoot.Busy Boys. LOL






If these guys say "want a piece of me"
Start Running







































Jamie Wyeth the Artist bought this light house, an lives in it.. Don't confuse it with Marshalls Point Lighthouse that is also in St.George.
only it's in Port Clyde.
