WOW, this next outing is September already.....REALLLY?????  Where did the summer go?

This week, hopefully the weather holds up...we are going to sketch/paint/do studies down by the bay at the end of Pine Neck Ave in Patchogue....Pine Neck is best accessed from South Country Road....

Coming from Sayville's direction...take Montak Highway to South Country Road....(Intersection is at the Swan Cleaners)....Take South Country road to the 2nd right and turn right on Pine Neck Ave....take Pine Neck Ave all the way down to the end where the guard rail/dead end is and turn into the park there.   We will be sketching there.

Bring insect repellent and a chair....this is a great spot for sunsets but also has a scruffy beach with beach grasses which makes an interesting subject, especially in the evening,

Find us on Facebook and see what we've been doing on sketch night!

This Wednesday August 29th at 6:30PM

We are going back to Sayville to the Maritime Museum to sketch/paint again....the location is awesome for sunsets.....if the weather is iffy by Tuesday, I will post an alternate location.

Ok, the weather was bad last week, let's try the Maritime Museum again...looks like we may actually get a sunset tomorrow evening.

The museum is closed in the evenings but there is still access to the grounds in the evening...

This Wednesday August 15th at 6PM

Weather permitting....if the weather turns out to be severe in the evening, as they are calling for thunderstorms...stay indoors and sketch something around the house.  Better to stay safe.

We are going to the Long Island Maritime Museum this week.  There's lots to sketch there including sunsets, if the weather holds out.

We are going to the Patchogue Shores Community Center down by the water so sketch.  This outing is being hosted by member Roseanne O'Reilly for us...here are the directions:

(Patchogue Shores):
Traveling West on Montauk Highway (from Patchogue), turn right at Swan Cleaners, onto South Country Road.  Over the Railroad tracks, travel about one mile.  Turn right onto Roosevelt Blvd., guard booth and Liquor Store and Bay Travel on the corner.  Go through three stop signs, after the third stop sign, turn left onto Summit.  Summit turns into Ocean Avenue.  Take this to the end, you will see the gate open on the right, take that into the parking lot of the community center.

Bring insect repellent.
