Lillian C  Wellfleet  June, 1977
Text Box: This drawing was done on our second or third visit to Wellfleet on Cape Cod. I’ve been accused of trying to include every pebble and feature in my drawings. I think I’m much better at editing now but the original version of this always seemed too much even to me. The fishing boat also seemed to be drawn in weird perspective. I still think there are probably too many lines especially in the water but I’ve lightened it, foreground more than background, and straightened out the boat. In the past I thought that there was something wrong or untrue with changing a drawing like this but I’ve come to the realization that it’s always just me working on my own drawings. The original is below.

I couldn’t have fixed that drawing when I drew it but I can now. This month’s drawing is another one that I think I’ve rescued. Neil Borrell neil@borrellcompany.com
