Monhegan Fisherman Waiting on the Market by Michael Vermette 33×46″ Oil
Michael Vermette has his own style. I am personally drawn to the paintings that have a good bit of dark and light – so dramatic, and clean – crisp with wonderful shadows, but truly, I love them all. This painting of the Monhegan fisherman waiting on the market is breathtaking! This painting is available at Gleason Fine Art in Booth Bay Harbor, Maine.
Take a peek at Michael’s website as well as the gallery websites, including the Lupine Gallery, they have some wonderful pieces!
