This small outbuilding has withstood a lot of weather and time here on Block Island. A friend and I chose this site to sketch on this very balmy but overcast November 11th, 2014.
Jessie Edwards is an artist living on Block Island. She owns and runs the Jessie Edwards Studio, a gallery which opened 26 years ago and specializes in regional fine art. During the off season she spends her time painting, drawing and catching up with aspects of her life which she has put aside during the hectic summer season. She plans to use this blog as a tool to encourage more self discipline and creativity by posting new work in it's various states of completion and as finished drawings and paintings for sale or just plain viewing.
