Quabbin Reservoir Work
One of my favorite places to work is the Quabbin Reservoir. Another rainy day, but the trees get very dark after it rains and stand out more than they normally would. I liked that it feels like you could just walk into the picture.

Berkshire Woods
I visit the Berkshires in October every year to sketch and paint the woodlands. I love the deep woods and stunning mountain views. Surprisingly the landscape can be very different from what can be seen closer to home. On the day I sketched this it had rained that morning and was a bit cold but I went out into the woods anyway. The rain can bring a richness to the ground and autumn colors against a grey sky that I wanted to capture here.
