Red Umbrellas with Sunflowers

 I find red umbrellas very hard to resist and these had buckets of sunflowers below them. How could I resist this display at Bayview Market & Farm in Riverhead?

Inktober Day 1

Today marks the start of Inktober 2022!!! Are you excited? Are you participating too?

I spent most of today with two friends hanging an art show out in Cutchogue at The Old Town Arts & Crafts Guild. The Patchogue sketch club is having an exhibit there for the month of October. When I was on the way home in the late afternoon I stopped at the Bayview Market & Farms in Jamesport to do a sketch for Inktober. I didn't want to miss the first day. It is hard to switch to ink only so quickly. The adjustment is hard. lol

 

Bayview Market

 When I head out on the north fork and think about sketching at a farmstead, Bayview Market in Aquebogue is usually where I end up. Their colorful umbrellas and produce can't be resisted...at least not by me. lol It is a very busy place and the parking lot is crazy, so I usually find a spot I like and sketch from my mobile studio. Then of course I do some shopping!
