The Forgotten Coast - East Point, Florida
Roger paints an old fishing shack in the small village of Eastpoint, just below Apalachicola. Starting with a Masonite board toned with Burnt Sienna, charcoal is used to block in the large areas of the composition. Attention is paid to the subtle colors of the early morning sky and the importance of placing lights against darks to create a strong image. East Point is where 90% of all oysters are harvested in Florida. Sarah visits one of the few remaining oyster processing plants and also nearby St. George Island to see the St. George Lighthouse.
