Sketchers went Downeast, to Stonington. Field Trip!!
Sketchbook Wandering!
I got to ride in the back seat...
Quick impressions on the road to Deer Isle.
Last chance to enjoy tree branches as buds are sprouting.
I got car sick from all the curves & hills, but it was worth it!
Glimpses drawn from imagination & memory.
In the sketchbook, not on watercolor paper...
Low tide.
If I could sum the voyage up in word, it would be: BLUE!
Blue & breezes & springtime sun,
replacing frozen grays of winter.
On the way home we stopped on top of Caterpillar Hill,
and looked out across the Bay! So often I have looked out to
Caterpillar Hill from my home on the mainland! Amazing!
I wish you posted every week!! Love the paintings of your trip..the crates and house:)♥So Maine so cute!Not fun being car sick:(
ReplyDeleteI love your sketches. Good idea with watercolor no time to fuss. Looks great
ReplyDeleteAh Rita - your sketches are amazing...I love the ones drawn from your imagination...just lovely friend. As for the photos they are beautiful as well. Hope you have a great day. Hugs!
ReplyDeleteOh, you are back! I just love your style. Like Monique said, I wish you posted every single week. Or more! Sorry about the car ride, though!
ReplyDeleteI know what you mean about the BLUE. That's how I felt last summer in the San Juan Islands. Looks like a nice trip, and you managed quite a bit from the back seat. I find it's hard enough to scan for scenes while driving...let alone sketch!
ReplyDeleteI especially liked the pastels you used for rock and sand.
ReplyDeleteI love your style, sketches, watercolor, blue, each, all . . .
ReplyDeleteBack seat riding can NOT happen for me . . .
Thinking of your “mention” . . . I felt car sick immediately . . .
Well, not quite that fast, . . . I have great empathy for people who get car sick!!
It usually stops me in my tracks . . . happy you were able to “carry on!”
