Surfside Beach is a short drive from Glen Weimer‘s cottage on Nanucket. He let me borrow his car and I packed a beach umbrella, sunscreen and a blanket along with my sketch supplies. I set up early and watched as people arrived to soak up the sun. This is a rare moment where I was sketching not to document a particular event, but just sketching for the joy of sketching. Line didn’t seem as important in this beech scene.
With the sketch done, I closed my eyes and relaxed while breathing in the salt air. This incredible island it a true escape. It was a warm beautiful day, and I needed to recharge my personal battery.
