The local landscape yields a bountiful feast for the eyes in every direction. Here, the air is cool and clean and the waters are crystal clear and decorated with thousands of colorful lobster trap markers and the opportunity to see a whale, seal, eagle or moose provides itself around every corner.
Bev and Hugh Taylor, the owners of the property are such great, down to earth people who go out of their way to make you at home and comfortable in their cottage - the kind of people you don't come across too often and when you do, you never forget them.
I painted this piece during my stay at the farm and left it with the Taylors to hang in the cottage. I find contentment in knowing that a part of my soul will remain up north at Rivendown.
Thank you Bev and Hugh for sharing your slice of heaven with us.
