The painting depicts a beach scene of Jekyll Island. Blue water lapping the shoreline with rocky outcroppings. Colors are blue, white and tan. Exhibited at the Copley Society of Boston 1963. As a child Marjorie took painting lessons one summer with Mrs. Lulu Pratt, and another with Hannah Drury, both of Bristol. One of her earliest watercolors was done in 1897 when she was 13. Another watercolor dates to around 1900 when she was 16 years old. Marjorie's love of painting blossomed in her late 60's after her husband, George Lyon, died. |
