Sketchbook Saturday: notes from the summer studio

I was incredibly lucky as a kid to spend my summers at the beach. And now I feel even luckier to be raising my family on the New England seacoast in the summers. I travel a lot during the school year and the summer belongs fully to my family, so I've set up a summer studio at the old family beach house.

This is the view on my morning walks with Ralph. It's also where, as a child, I would search for crabs and starfish.
