Fireplace Boat Basin and Long Island Snow


Now that I'm finished with the 100 People challenge, I can get back to posting some of my other work. This was painted down at the Fireplace Boat Basin in Brookhaven. In season it is filled with boats, but at this time of year there was not one boat in the water. I didn't let that stop me. Since nobody else was around I parked my car at the end of the little boardwalk going to the water by this shack. It was a good vantage point for sketching from my "mobile studio."


Today we had a snowstorm here on Long Island with about 5 inches of wet snow by me. Here are a few photos I took when I walked around my complex when the snow stopped, as well as a sketch of some of the snow on the branches of one of the trees.




This was done with my Elegant Writer which shades so nicely.

Fireplace Boat Basin

On Sunday one of my art associations had their holiday brunch in Bellport. When the brunch was over I headed to the next town, Brookhaven to find a spot to sketch. I went over by the Fireplace Boat Basin. It looked so inviting looking through the gate that I just pulled over on the side of the road and sketched. I used watercolors and a ink for this and it is about 5 x 6.
