Central Park Sketching and Art Meetup Group
Although the Meet-up Group usually sketches in Central Park during the non-winter months, this past Saturday we sketched at Bryant Park which is located behind the New York Public Library. It was a beautiful day and the Park was full. We sketched in 3 separate areas in the Park and shared our sketchbooks at the end of each. Here are my 3 watercolor journal pages from the afternoon. This is the fountain on the west side of the Park.
There are umbrellas, chairs, and lamposts everywhere!
These were the flowers blooming in the big planters that were scattered all around the Park.

These are great sketches, I especially like the fountain.

Love the consistency of the fountain, and something about those lamp posts and chairs that draws me ^^ I like them

You have such a lovely light touch with your watercolors! I love the simplicity of them.

I love how you captured the birds on the fountain! Very nice work. What fun to be able to go with a group to paint.

These are beautiful drawings - the fountain blows me away, and I love the feel of the sketch with the umbrella and the light pole.

What fun you must have had! You are so lucky to be part of an active sketch group. I live in a small town where there is a lot of rural beauty, but no such art sketching group to hook up to.
