As...Funny you should ask about the viewpoint, Wren. As far as I know the bridge can't be seen from this vantage point. I actually did a sketch from the other side of the bridge, and flipped it over when I did this view in my studio. Initially I wanted to see the Marin Headlands across the way, which is the main reason I flipped it. They kind of got lost in the final though. <br />No, I've never painted from a boat. I'm quite used to making things up to make the story work better.Michael Reardonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13192769387314169806noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8449226514380449483.post-42669220614381188092012-04-10T08:24:27.569-07:002012-04-10T08:24:27.569-07:00A question about the painting to the right.

Was there a point beyond the dock that you were able to look back across the water, to the dock and bridge anchorage beyond, or did you do this from a boat? Some of your best water paintings look like they are done from a boat, but is that even possible?wrenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08080092560297808217noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8449226514380449483.post-58793140293316500582012-04-10T08:09:25.623-07:002012-04-10T08:09:25.623-07:00Thanks, Rajeev.
