Sands Willets House Line Sketches






Sands Willets House Line Sketching
This type of sketching requires that you start out with a simple shape and build out from there. This is good practice for making shapes which is very important for the planning of a painting. Another form of sketching that I teach in my drawing and painting classes.

Tonight's effort. Capturing the light is what plein air painting is all about.
I will have a painting demonstration at the Dodge House Spring Fling

You will see how I transform my sketches into paintings using
a simple approach. I will also have paintings available for purchase at

Cow Neck Peninsula Historic Society for the upkeep and 
renovations of the Sands Willets House and Dodge House.
