These women digging clams in the shallows of the sound represent a heritage we North Carolinians should remember, respect and revere. Women do gather. Most of the time, we are the nesters and the nurturers. The people who have lived at the coast for several generations and learned to thrive there, are to be learned from. It would serve our state to save some of their heritage from hotels and golf courses.

The monochromatic palette sets the mood for your painting. I enjoy the historical conection the painting has.
