But it hasn’t been brought off very well. I don’t mean to cavil more, since the picture is really so wonderful. I’m grateful for the attention you’ve given to it.Nunclehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03895984235159889692noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2343439372519556254.post-17088418169739907242015-10-02T08:04:59.487-04:002015-10-02T08:04:59.487-04:00

It clearly is a piece of sail cloth, but it looks like a big dead flounder.Counterlighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14345956180434795401noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2343439372519556254.post-12234903582838157842015-10-01T20:53:18.432-04:002015-10-01T20:53:18.432-04:00In the first photo of the storm painting there is,...In the first photo of the storm painting there is, at the left, a largish and whitish something draped over some rocks at the edge of the water. What is that? I assume it may be a sail or sailcloth left there to dry out. Is that right? It seems vaguely the wrong scale or something. You didn't present that segment of the painting in a detail, so maybe you, too, think it is a bit weak.Nunclehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03895984235159889692noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2343439372519556254.post-78553251620965380732015-09-21T06:35:10.287-04:002015-09-21T06:35:10.287-04:00DOGGIE!
