Sharks on the Cape


I was inspired to create this painting by a picture I took while visiting Chatham, MA in the summer of 2015.  The photo was of an art installation called "Sharks in the Park".  Each shark was given a personal touch by a local artist.  I grabbed a piece of scrap wood and painted a replica of my photo using acrylic paints.  I really liked all the different sharks that various artists created.  I had a great time mimicking my photograph on this piece of wood I found in our garage.  I think it would be fantastic to be part of an art installation like the one I saw in Chatham.
