central park--sheep's meadow

oil on panel, 9x12
No class for a few weeks and I thought I would paint outside everyday. I didn't. Tim Dosé let me tag along one day & I started this little painting. We're looking north toward the Dakota. I need to put in the people. The little people.

I think this painting is cute.

Drawing at the Met - Central Park

These are from the last day of class.
The tree is near the east end of the little Turtle Pond. I like this tree drawing. I never could draw a tree before. The building is Belvedere Castle from across the Pond. It was a hot day and I sat in the shade of a willow tree for both sketches.
