Experience varies among my students on this trip. Some have an art background and have painted before while others are new to sketching. I think everyone is learning a lot though, and just the fact that we’re out painting every day is enough make all of us improve.
So I thought I’d share some of what is happening in everyone’s sketchbooks this week………….

Sea glass, fir trees, blue water, rocks and shells – it all says MAINE!

These are great! Love the lettering as well as the painting!
What beautiful sketches! I, too, love the lettering. Looks like you're all having a wonderful time. And I definitely have cottage envy over where you're staying!
Such pleasure to view these journals – thank you to all the participants for sharing!
Delightful sketches, what a treasure for the artists to remember their trip every time they open their sketchbook.
