Lighthouse View from Captree

Today I wanted to do a view of the Fire Island Lighthouse. I decided to stop at Captree State Park and paint it from across the water. This is 5 x 7.

    Nicely done! As the days become a little shorter, your sketches help us hang on to summer a bit tighter. I really don't want it to end just yet!

    A really nice composition, Joan -- and I really like the dry-brush effect you used on the foreground foliage.

    I like this very much Joan. It's wonderful sketching the sand with the foliage and just a hint of the lighthouse! Beautiful !!
