30 Day Challenge - Day 29 - Indian Island

Well February sort of messed up the numbering for the "30 Paintings in 30 Days" Challenge since the month is over. My gouache challenge will continue today and tomorrow to meet my quota of 30 paintings. This was done at Indian Island County Park in Riverhead. The park has campsites and views along a beach along the Peconic River. I sat in my car facing the river to paint this.

Check out the other paintings being done during the challenge. They are here and are worth a look.

Indian Island View

This painting was done in the same park as the previous post. I liked the trees against the sky but in order to get back far enough to see the beach and the grasses I had to sit in the parking lot. I thought it would be safer to sit in my car than worry about someone driving into me while I was painting. This is about 3 x 8.

Indian Island Cove

This was painted at Indian Island on the north fork of Long Island. It was a warm day and I did get to sit on the beach for a while to paint this. Yay!!! This is about 3 x 7.

If you remember back to my April 7th post about the Bellport Acoustic Jam session, I told you that the publisher/editor of Bellport.com asked for copies of the sketches to put on their website. Here is a link to the article. You can see my friend, Gina's sketches too.
