Monhegan Painters


On my last night on the Island, a few of my painting friends got together for a drink. Of the two shots taken that night this was the worst for me. If you blow it up you will see my eyes were closed, but my friends looked great so I choose this photo to post. From the left is Carol, Lee, Kevin and me. Camla had already left , Ann was out somewhere and Barbara was holed up in her studio.It was a good trip and every year I meet wonderful people. Painting went well this year and I look forward to next year adventure!

Bad Hair Day, Monhegan style


I rescued this snarl of rope from the bottom of White Head. I walked it all the way back to the Trailing Yew, a little over 2/3 of a mile through the wooded trails. I gave it to Rusty, president of the "Frayed Knot Company", so he could turn this old lobster trap rope into beautiful mats, chair seats or decorative hangers. He said it weighed about 50lbs. It was a good haul!

New Small Painting Site


I've started a new site of paintings. These are small paintings and studies for larger works. Take a look and see what you think. http://www.daskamsmallpaintings.blogspot.com/ They are a lot of fun to do. Thanks Rick
