Finally a beautiful clear sunny day for a road trip to Cape Cod. The seals were sunny themselves on the sand bars off of Chatham Light Beach (possible future sketch) and people were finally coming out from a long winter hibernation. This is a quick line drawing sketch from across the harbor looking towards Stage Harbor Marina in Chatham, MA. Only one fishing boat in the harbor, but the floats were all awaiting in the water for the summer boats. Faber-Castell Pitt XS pen in the Stillman and Birn 9″ x 12″ Alpha Sketchbook.

The First Unitarian Universalist Society of Middleboro opened for services on October 26, 1890. In the early 1900s David Pratt gifted us a more central and visible parcel of land on Main Street next to the Town Hall. The church building was cut into three pieces, then pulled by oxen through the streets, and remounted on its current stone foundation with a new porch in 1907.

This sketch is a little different style. With the bright sunshine, white snow and dark shadows, the sketch wanted to be more graphic and less about the detail. Faber-Castel Pitt Pens in black and gray in the Stillman and Birn Alpha Series Sketchbook.

I have even less time to draw in weekends than during the week with all of the snow clean-up required this winter. This is a quick sketch of the Parish House and Chapel at Saint Barnabas Memorial Church in Falmouth, MA that was dedicated in December 1890. The building was a gift from Frank Beebe in memory of his mother and two sisters, Frances and Mary Louise. The house was originally used as a reading room or library for the town of Falmouth. Pigma Micron pens in an Alpha Series Stillman and Birn Sketchbook.
