This was one of the first prints I created during my residency. It was based on one of my morning sketches, which in turn was based partly on an image of a vast industrial site that I had come across while mining my 1966 encyclopedia set for an inspirational prompt. My studio was located near Fish Beach on Monhegan and I felt like I was in the heart of the island's "industry sector" of lobster fishing, with stacks of traps lining the way just outside my windows, along with every size and color plastic barrel and tank.
