An afternoon walk to the jetty this afternooncoincided with the colorful Creole Miss tugboat
and barge leaving the Kennebunk River
heading out to sea. A sight to behold!
( Our last gallery was in the building with the
blue roof across the river. At that time it was
known as the Schooner's Inn and we were there
for 8 years from 1994 to 2002. Was a magical
location where the river meets the sea.
It was there our wonderful cat, Ellie May
chose us to be her family. She actually
moved into our gallery and became the "shop cat",
greeting customers and drawing a fan club of her own.
We've been working side by side, everyday ever since!
She's my supervisor and a guiding light!
I've written and illustrated several stories
about Ellie May and her son Walter's adventures
in a small seacoast tourist town. It's not often you
see cats on the beach!
They have not been published , maybe someday!)
I painted this a few years ago of Walter on the beach.
