My Week "Up North"

 
 
 
 
 
 

Picture "One" is the Little Traverse Bay view from the Sunset Beach in Petoskey.  This area is where we do our Sketchbook Watercolor Journaling Class (actually, in Bay View Michigan...just NE of Petoskey.) 
Picture "Two" was our first day painting (plein air) in Bay View--we painted an old iron fence.
Picture "Three" is in front of an elderly lady's cottage that has tons of flowers...have painted her doorway before, but decided to do the sundial w/flowers...just a hint of her door on the left.
Picture "Four" is a combo of the Little Traverse Bay with a SeaGull and the shallow water with some weeds and sandy water and stones in the background.  In the foreground are some Wildflowers that are growing profusely along the Bear River Trail.
Picture "Five" is my view of a lavender cottage along Little Traverse Bay with lots of flowers.
Picture "six" is my basket of (Whitefish) Fish & Chips at the Freshwater Grille (notice the two hushpuppies
:-)
Picture "Seven" is the "Landings" an eating place where you land if you take the Car Ferry across the South Arm of Lake Charlevoix--only been there once and enjoyed it.  A colorful place to paint.
Catherine Carey's Watercolor Sketchbook Journaling class is fun and we meet new AND old friends every time.
