This Wednesday Oct 3rd at 7PM

I know some of you have other committments and I am hoping that 7PM is convenient for you.  With the sun setting earlier and it looks like there may be rain on Wednesday, I am scheduling us for an indoor venue.  I was hoping we could do a full moon sketching event but rain would wash that out.

We will be sketching at the Roast Coffee and Tea Company in Main Street in Patchogue...a few doors west of the theater.  

I hope there is parking because that is becoming more an more of an issue in Patchogue these days.   There should be parking behind the shop if there isn't on Main Street, and there should be parking behind the library as well, across the street.

Hope to see you there........

First, we want to say we had a great sketch night at Carol Amodeo's house last week.    We are very grateful we had the opportunity to sketch there, Thank you Carol!  We loved it and we would love to come back again!

2nd... It's supposed to rain on Wednesday.  For those of you wishing to sketch, we will schedule the Roast Coffee and Tea Company this week for sketch night and if the rain lets up, there are many places on Main Street to sketch.   Please email or FB each other to let each other know if you can  make it or not...

Hey you landscape painters!.....try challenging yourself with sketching people in the coffee shop or a store front aka cityscape on Main Street...you may be surprised what you learn from the exercise!   Changing it up is good!

Stay dry!  Post those sketches on our FB group page!

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!

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

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.
