This drawing was a commission for the owners of this sweet home set back off the road on Lakeside Drive, Block Island.  The colors of early summer are a reminder in the mid winter cold.

The Lilac Cottage overlooks the Tea Room Pond on West Side Road.  I have always been drawn (no pun intended) to small buildings.
This National Park in the British Virgin Islands  is where the ruins of the Copper Mine are located  This historic 19th century site is undergoing restoration. It sits on a cliff on the southeast side of Virgin Gorda.

I was strolling towards the beach the other afternoon and took some photos en route.  This is off the corner of Chapel Street on Old Town Road..tiny doll house sized buildings.  The one in the foreground houses a favorite lunch restaurant called the The Three Sisters. It's presently closed for the winter.

This is a little shed/cottage on a busy corner near 'Town" on Block Island where a good friend spends her summer when she rents out her own home.  It's her oasis in the middle of town!
I just completed this drawing before Christmas and sent it to the homeowner who I hope was happy with it.  It got me drawing again after a lengthy time period away from my own art or creativity.

After a lengthy hiatus,  I have cleaned and refilled my drawing pens and hopefully the productivity and creativity will begin!  This is my first drawing for someone of the Manisses Hotel Garden on Block Island.

Skies of puffy clouds, sailboats on the move,  boulders and beaches...heaven!

More beaches and boulders although in this one I included figures which I don't 
usually do...pretending the beach is without a single person.

Here is another ink with watercolor drawing done in the British Virgin
Islands...I just can't get over the color of the water there...so different than
the island where I spend my other 351 days!

Here is another seascape with those incredible boulders and the sparkling turquoise water.

This drawing was done several weeks ago while sitting on the beach on an island in
 the Caribbean.  I spent the morning in the shade sketching this view among others.

This drawing was a commissioned one for the retiring  ecumenical choir leader as a thank you from the choir.  It is her home here on Block Island.
