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 seascape was done while in the British Virgin Islands this winter!

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.

This small shed like building is called "The Savoy" by it's owners.

 

The Brooklyn Bridge as sketched looking towards Brooklyn from Manhattan for my son and his fiancee's save the date wedding invitation!

This is a view from a new home on Champlin Farm Road and was a commissioned drawing and given as a house warming gift to the new homeowners.

This home sits off the road almost hidden by shrubs, trees and hedge. It has an amazing view of the North Light and beyond.

This is a home that perches atop a hill overlooking the ocean. It has a rather majestic look and the landscape is greening up as Spring progresses here on this quiet island 12 miles away from the Coast of Rhode Island.

This sweet little church is  nestled in the landscape and overlooks the ocean. It was a commissioned drawing and will be a gift to the pastor who will be retiring after many years service here.

St Ann's on Block Island, RI

It's almost April and I love the way the forsythia is almost blindingly bright when it catches the sun. This home sits atop a hill at the corner of Center Road and Beach Avenue.
