plein air: assateague

My brother and I camped at Assateague National Seashore in Maryland for a few days this week; this was our fourth year. Camping--especially tent camping--is some work, but what beats sleeping on the beach; looking up from your sleeping bag and seeing the stars; seeing the sun rise over the ocean?

I had intended to paint more, but there's never enough time! 

I managed these two sketches of a view from our campsite.
