This beautiful and iconic rotunda at Tucks Point in Manchester-By-The-Sea, Massachusetts sits proudly at water's edge gleaming in the evening sunlight. As an artist I was drawn to the challenge of this composition while participating in the Cape Ann Plein Air as a juried artist. The rotunda, a very significant landmark in the area is likely to be raised up in a monumental undertaking to preserve it from future rising tides. It will still be there although in a new configuration and felt compelled to capture it in it's present glory and as an historic representation. The painting delights with joie de vivre and evokes smiles on viewer's faces.
