Paint Out Tues & Thurs Oct 5 & 7, Clinton Town Beach

Clinton Town Beach offers river views, kayak racks, children's playground, ocean beach, islands, view of a marina, plenty of interesting subjects. We can paint there only before or after the summer beach season, so now's our chance! Directions as usual at https://ctsa-guilford.blogspot.com/p/directions-to-venues.html.

Last week on Thursday Betsey, Cheryl, Sandy, and Veronica painted at Chaffinch Island Park in Guilford. It was a glorious day, a bit breezy and chilly at first but warming up. We were entertained by boats going by on the river, a person doing yoga on the rocks, someone singing and playing a flute, occasional dog walkers - and the spectacular view of the sky and water on the Sound.

Last week at Indian Town, the private association beach/marina area where Tom invited us to paint, several of us enjoyed the opportunity on Tuesday to paint the beach and the people relaxing in the sun. It was a lovely day and we had lunch in Tom and Diane's beautiful yard. Thank you very much for your hospitality, Tom.
