5.5″X3.5″ Watercolour in paper I used the tiny watercolour Moleskine that I bought in England for this one. I have painted Navy Hall before, a couple of times at least. I did this at lunchtime today, sitting on the ramparts of Fort George, the Niagara River is in the background. [...] 9″X6″ Watercolour & pen on paper Youngstown New York again. This is a view I have painted several times already, see last year here and just the other day here. As well as variations here, and here and no doubt a few more. This is just a short walk from where I work, so [...] 6″X4″ Watercolour on paper Finally a day to sit outside. I only had a few minutes at lunchtime but I went down to the river and soaked up some sunshine and did this very quick sketch of the NY side.

With 31 electoral votes, New York state seems to [...] 5″X7″ WC pencil on paper This is on the Niagara River, very close to the Pumphouse. I really have to get myself a new scanner, I can’t seem to get rid of the pink in these pictures. [...] 6″X4″ Watercolour on paper Last weekend I had to drive the boys to Stratford for a baseball game. There wasn’t enough time to see a show unfortunately, but I did go and sit by the river for a while (playing hooky from my maternal duty to watch my children play ball). This is a [...] 5″X7″ WC pencil on paper Only a few miles downriver (North) of Niagara Falls there is the famous whirlpool. There is a cable car ride one can take across it but few people are aware that you can actually go down into the gorge to the little beach. It is a very steep path [...] 6″X9″ Pencil on paper I really have to start coming up with some more original titles. Same old place, looking across to Youngstown NY, this time at lunch time. I am still getting that pinkish hue in my scans, I am beginning to wonder if I need a new scanner. [...] |
