I did a few still life sketches using veggies. Most of these were done for hunt items for Creative Spark's Scavenger Hunts. The top and bottom one were done postcard size so I could use them in the postcard project.

At the Dock
I love scenes like this of docks along the water where you can see the boats and pilings. This was painted along Brown's River Road in Sayville.

Sunflower
In between the landscapes I've been painting for the postcard project I've been doing some sunflower paintings for Ukraine. I've been doing them from my own photos. I'm behind posting the cards here, but today I mailed the finished cards to my friend, Mary Jo who will be sending them to Ukraine. This one was done with acrylic inks. I like the rich colors they created.

Weeks Boat Yard Postcard
Weeks Boat Yard was the subject of another postcard that I did for the project being sent to Ukraine. I've sketched this view so many times.

Bodhi's at Corey Beach
For the Creative Spark Scavenger Hunt recently we had to sketch something used for sports, so I sketched the surfboard that is part of the outdoor decor at Bodhi's Shack down by Corey Beach in Blue Point.

Dunes at Cupsogue Beach
If you follow my blog you are aware of how I am attracted to the beach, the dunes, and the foliage that is there. Cupsogue Beach in Westhampton has some really nice dunes and a great beach. I'll have to make a point to get there this summer.

Beach Fences
At the end of Dune Road in Westhampton is Cupsogue Beach. I was there on a cold, very windy day. The beach fences and their shadows attracted me.
