Cockermouth River at Sculptured Rocks












Cockermouth River at Sculptured Rocks

11 in. x 14 in., acrylic on cradled board

$325 unframed (no frame necessary)

A few years back, we took a hike up to Sculptured Rocks, a natural area up in Groton, New Hampshire. Sculptured Rocks gets its name because the water has carved interesting softened curves and holes out of the stones and boulders in and along the Cockermouth River.  Mostly shady and lined with hiking trails and a few walking bridges, there are several spots where you can sit by the water or soak your feet in the cold current.  I climbed down to a large, flat rock in the river to take the reference photo for this painting looking upstream.
