Sketching in Newport's Foundries

Thomas C. Skinner was an artist who documented dramatic scenes of shipbuilding.

This 1933 gouache painting shows the Mallory Line freighter Mallemak in dry dock, getting a paint job. 

When I visited the Mariners Museum  in Newport News, Virginia a couple weeks ago, Jeanne Willoz-Egnor, Director of Collections Management, took me behind the scenes to see some of Skinner's giant paintings. This oil shows the workings of the forge hammer shop.

In the shipyard's heavy machine shop, special tools refine the shapes of the forgings and castings.

Skinner was born in Kentucky in 1888. He was given a studio in the shipyard and was hired to create paintings "that served to promote prosperity during the Great Depression and celebrate America's industrial might."
