Description
This is an acrylic painting created at the request of my husband who remembers this view from his youth. This is a special view as it was the coastal view of Nantucket Sound from my in-law's Cape Cod cottage. There was a canal that ran in front of the house and several small creeks that were cut into the marsh between the cottage and the beach. My mother-in-law would keep a pair of binoculars on a table in front of the window and keep watch for anyone in trouble out on the water. She initiated a couple rescues and was affectionately known as the Coast Guard.
Cape Cod is a peninsula in the shape of an arm off the U.S. state of Massachusetts. It is a popular summertime destination for its quaint villages, seafood shacks, lighthouses, freshwater glacier ponds, and bays and beaches. Visitors can board ferries in Hyannis and Harwich Port to cruise over to the Cape islands of Martha's Vineyard and Nantucket. Cape Cod extends from Provincetown at the northeast tip of the fingers to Woods Hole in the upper arm in the southwest. Chatham is located mid-Cape at the elbow.
