Dyeing Fishnet
Comments: Early dyeing process - driftwood for fire, copper boiler, commercial dyeing products. After dyeing, the net was thrown into the bay. The salt water acted as mordant (to hold color). Elizabeth and Coulton Waugh, Provincetown artists, convinced and taught "Tiny" how to capture the colors of Truro in the net.
