Cadillac Mountain Casts a Shadow on the Earth as the Moon Rises


This Painting will be in the Guild of Boston Artist's Annual Members' Exhibition which opens in May.  I was painting atop Cadillac Mountain in Acadia National Park and was about to pack up when I noticed the shadow reaching all the way across Frenchman Bay.  The shadow was cast by Cadillac Mountain.   It fascinated me as I could see so clearly the physics of our planet spinning in space as my location starts to turn away from the sun.  It was also very beautiful physically as the autumn colors combined with the setting sun created a warm glow in the distance set against the cool of the ocean blue and the dark foreground in shadow.  I quickly made another sketch and utilized it to form the basis of this studio painting.

This painting is now available through the Guild of Boston Artists  www.giuldofbostonartists.org
