Description
This is a watercolor sketch from one of my many watercolor journals, done when I was visiting Lakeside in the summer. I paint without drawing the subject in order to save time. It takes concentration, but it is rewarding. Oh, how I wished I had used sunscreen! There are no shade trees on the dock!

Thank you for your purchase in Murrysville, PA. This painting was done in my painting sketchbook, with only a rush and no pencil. I never want to spend the time sketching and possibly erasing, etc. so I just start in the middle of what I want to paint with a square, flat brush...in this case for the windows of the pavilion. Each step comparing the size with the next object. ....and so forth. Because It was not a particularly hot day, nor the sun so bright, I was able to sit there without too much sun exposure. Shadows were added last to create the illusion of light.
