Stony Brook Gristmill


While I was at the park in Stony Brook yesterday where I painted the barn, I also did this view of the gristmill in my Sketchbook Project Sketchbook.

  1. Joan!! these two paintings - this and below -- look so FABULOUS! There's a bit of loosness to this -- perhaps relaxation -- as though you painted them in utter joy -- glorious work!

  2. Oh I would so love to live in this beautiful mill building! Love those bricks/stone, the green shutters, and of course, that perfect waterwheel!

  3. Lin - Many thanks!

    Sherry - Thanks. Luckily for me part of the waterwheel was hidden so it wasn't too hard to draw. lol

  5. This is really beautiful. You have got the wall and the stones looking so 3 dimensional!
