Marblehead Marina 1998 - 2

And here is another sketch on the same page as the last one. Marblehead and that area of Massachusetts coastline is filled with imposing and historic buildings, all of them related to the seafaring culture that grew up in the area. This is a big building loaded with complex structures and a turret sometimes called a "widow's walk" from the imagined scene of a lady whose husband is missing at sea. She goes up to the top of the tower hoping to see his ship returning from the distance.

Brown ink and colored pencil on sketchbook page, 3" x 3", August 27, 1998.
