Richter's Orchard

 My friend, Susan wanted to go out and paint trees on Sunday so three of us headed over to Richter's Orchard in East Northport. The orchard has apple, cherry and pear trees. There were some trees still in bloom but they had passed their peak. It is a pretty place and with all the trees around in neat rows you feel like you are in another world. The orchard closes from May to I think September. I guess they don't want anyone coming in and messing with the produce while it is growing. Until then their barn is open to purchase some of the different varieties of fruit. The day we were there the barn was already closed. I'll have to stop by in the fall and check it out then.

I did a view of the orchard.

Then I did just one tree in ink with a bit of color.

Warwick House Commission - SOLD

This was done as a commission requested by a friend of a friend and done from photos of the house in Warwick, NY. The woman wanted this as a gift for her niece who grew up in the house and on the property, and was married there over Memorial Day Weekend. Her family had owned the property which was an orchard and had sold it. The new owners allowed them to have the wedding there.
