Summer Celebrations Summer People

Summer in my little town: Friday morning Farmers’ Market. The Belfast Bay Fiddlers! And people browsing, shopping, local plants & food. One key to making a lot of quick sketches: Use an inexpensive book with lots of pages. Bring 2 sketchbooks so that one can dry while you work in the other. Thursday night outdoor concerts, sometimes on a blocked off road in town, sometimes on the Common, overlooking the harbor. Lots of opportunities for fast sketches of what seems to be my favorite subject. My fascination with observing people began with my mom & little me on vacation. We would sit on a bench on the boardwalk, & describe the summer people strolling by. A sort of Conversational Sketching. The Saturday indoor United Farmers’ Market. Another happy place. It’s crowded, but I found a great corner with a table on which to rest my book. Dot’s Café in Lincolnville has longer hours now. The wine bottles, like sparkly little people. I’m allergic to their content, but they are festive!
