Train pics for @kayt-was-taken !

Today I'm just going a few hours along the east coast on the Downeaster, from visiting family to a college friend's wedding.

I'm in business class because it was only a tiny bit more expensive. I got lucky and got one of the solo seats so I don't have to touch a nasty stranger. Plenty of space for me to stretch my legs and? A free drink!

Views are mostly those disappointing small east coast trees (I'm spoiled by massive evergreens) and quaint lil houses and infrastructure.

Stay tuned for my Big trip across the country in just a few days!!

An Oldie But a Goodie • Myk Martinez. Did this several years ago on my iPhone while flying to Key West. I know huh? Should have been thinking tropical beaches and Tequila, not cold rainy Maine coast fishermen… but I guess we now know where my heart lies. #keywest #maine #mainecoast #downeaster #portrait #portraitpainting #vermontartist #mykmartinez https://www.instagram.com/p/ClED-c4Ahha/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Happy September 🍂

It feels as though an eternity has passed since my last post.. I'm overjoyed to announce that after a very long search, I've finally found a place where my heart can rest and my soul can thrive. Last week we closed on a c. 1800 antique colonial lovingly preserved in idyllic mid-coast Maine amidst picturesque mountain views, forests, and wildflower fields. We even have a small, centuries-old apple orchard to explore and care for 🥹

From the moment I arrived, I knew I had discovered my sanctuary 🕯️ Antique homes have always held a special place in my soul and now I find myself living out the dream that has danced in my imagination for years.

There’s a sense of timelessness that lingers in the air.. The walls adorned with stories of days long gone. The wavy panes of the window glass, gently distorting the world beyond. The large fireplaces bearing witness to the warmth and laughter that once graced these rooms. The worn wide wood floors, aged with a beautiful patina — a testament to centuries of lives and dreams that have unfolded here.

Every crack and creak an invitation to embrace the imperfections of life.

I can't begin to express the depth of gratitude that fills my heart as I embark on this new chapter. I’m excited to share with you the beauty that surrounds me in this special place, and I’m eager to dive back into photography and the studio — to paint and create once again.

This week, we began clearing out what will soon become my art studio, housed in the barn converted workshop that was built c. 1800 and is situated just beyond a majestic weeping willow.

To those who have stuck with me throughout this journey, your support means the world to me, and I am forever grateful for your continued encouragement.

So here we are, at the beginning of a new chapter. This is my return, and I can't wait to share more with you 🤎

Billy Joel - The Downeaster 'Alexa' (Live at the Los Angeles Sports Arena, April 1990)

While I'm on a roll about Billy's vocals, I'll leave this here, because I've probably listened to it 20 times over the last few days. Everything going on here is great. Liberty on the drums. Jean-Luc Ponty on the violin. Billy giving a chill-inducing vocal performance. This incredible song. I can't get over it.

The journey begins! I'm getting on the Downeaster soon for the first and shortest leg of my long journey.

4 day plan:

Downeaster -> Lake Shore Limited -> Empire Builder

I'm most looking forward to the Empire Builder, despite the absolutely heinous line name, because I splurged on a roomette.

#who wants to be my friend and split roomette costs with me? this shits too expensive to do alone #trains #amtrak #Downeaster

After dousing the red marker lights, Amtrak Downeaster Train 683 behind P42 197 will ready to run north to Portland after a 35-min. layover in Boston's North Station. Two MBTA trains flank Amtrak, and new F59s are on order to replace the aging F40s. MBTA reaches five destinations out of this depot, including Rockport, Mass. October 2012
