Paint Out at Neck Road Boat Launch Thursday May 17

Hi, everyone,
This afternoon is a gorgeous one. But it isn't going to last... However, in a week of showers, Thursday does look the most promising with a forecast for part clouds part sun.

Last week at West Wharf beach, five intrepid painters came to paint in fog and drizzle. Unsurprisingly, none were watercolorists! But they get high praise for determination.

We will be painting at the Neck Road Boat Launch in Madison (directions on the blog as usual at http://ctsa-guilford.blogspot.com/). This is a lovely spot, looking out over the marshes and river in one direction, including anchored boats and the Grass Island Shack in Guilford, and towards the houses on the point silhouetted against the skyline in the other. Watch out for high tide, though. High tide at 1.26pm may affect the parking lot so if you set up to paint right by the river, you might have wet feet if you stay too long (see our friend Larry below!).

Hope to see you there.
-Veronica

PS, there have been a few changes to the schedule of locations. Please do check the updated list now; the changes are in red type. It is unlikely there will be any more this year.
