2nd Mural in Poulsbo, Washington! ~ DogFish Bay~
Hello dear blog reader! I am starting another month-long trip; this time in the U.S., going to St. Louis, Baltimore, NYC and Maine to visit famiy and friends. I hope you can join me! My first post of this journey will be the completion of this mural that I started last Fall.
Over the winter I completed a mural called “DogFish Bay” in Bill Austin’s garage. Bill is a near 90 year old mover and shaker in Poulsbo, who likes to see creative projects getting done. This was done on 4’x8’ plywood panels and reassembled/installed on the Longship Marine Building. It measures 14’x 24’ total.
It’s a historically ambiguous scene, spanning a range from the 1890s to 1950s, including a Mosquito Fleet ferry on the right, Evening Star Purse Seiner center (still in service) and the small, yet elegantly crafted Poulsbo boats (lower left).
Below is a video that tells and shows more. If reading from email. you probably have to go to the blog to see the video.
More murals loom in the future! One on Bainbridge Island and possibly another 2 in Poulsbo! Zoiks! I better make hay this summer. Best! Steffon
