Avalon Park

My plein air group has gone several times to Avalon Park in Stony Brook. I usually avoid the lake itself and focus on the mill house there, but this time I decided to tackle the lake and some of the birds that are always around there. This is 8 x 10.

  2. Joan, I agree with Michael, you get so much done! I love them all, especially the people in places. Hmmm, landscapes with figures. :)

    Jo - LOL I get artwork done, but not much housework. Good thing Jerry doesn't mind. Thanks.

  5. Joan, this is just beautiful! Is all your work in sketchbooks? (I can't remember!) You just turn up so many pieces begging to be framed! This is another and I love it! Thank you for the idea on enlarging my grids. I'm not sure my anal tendencies will allow that! LOL

  6. Sherry - Thank you. Most of my work is not in sketchbooks but are on standard sized papers that can be framed easily.

  7. This is lovely. Your work is so peaceful. Today my neighbor and I did a spring garden tour and one had a lovely large pond with water running. Something peaceful about water. :)

  9. Thanks Chris. A few of the gardens on this tour I'm doing have water features and that is always fun.

    Mickey - Thanks!
