Katie

It has been a while since I joined the Wet Paints portrait group on Tuesday night. Katie sat for us this week.

At the Pump

My plein air group met the other day at VanderZalm Greenhouses in Bellport. It was drizzling so I had to find a view to paint indoors. This pump and the geraniums caught my eye, but the aisles there are so narrow. I used my tripod easel but couldn't stretch the legs out even halfway. It balanced anyway. :) This is 8 x 10.

Sayville Park

I sat on the tiny beach at the end of Foster Avenue in Sayville the other day and couldn't resist sketching the view up by the benches.

Beach Sketch

Believe it or not it was actually warm enough to sit on the beach the other day...I even stuck my toes in the water (much too cold). Just a few people nearby to sketch...soon it will be packed.

Beach Dune

Here is another dune sketch I did at Robert Moses State Park the other day. Every spot looks different and the foliage is so interesting.

Here are a few EDM sketches.

Dune Vegetation

I was over on Fire Island the other day to drop off something at the lighthouse, and I stopped for a few minutes to paint some of the dune vegetation.

Airport Sketch

The other day I went to Kennedy International Airport to pick up my husband. I brought along my sketchbook which made the wait more enjoyable. I love all the characters waiting for people.
