Cartão skiffs and boathouse

I was lucky enough to be chosen for an artists retreat on Great Spruce Head Island in Penobscot bay, the summer home of painter Fairfield Porter and photographer Elliot Porter. The family still owns the island and keeps it as authentic as possible complete with wooden boats for daily adventures. Being in the middle of the bay gives you a front row seat to the whims of the weather like watching the last remnants of the morning fog drift away.
