LEA AND JAY'S GARDEN Summer is finally lingering in Langley, offering us infinite opportunities to get out and sketch! Fellow sketchers Sue, Phyllis, and I visited Jay's farm on Maxwelton Road for a quickie sketch after bike riding. The sunflowers stretch towards the sky - stunning! but if we had more time, we'd no doubt have sketched animals, skulls, crops, buildings ... the choices are endless. We'll be back!

Lea and Jay's Garden

Today Sue and Barb and I went on a bike ride to Maxwelton Beach with every intention of sketching at the beach, but the stand of sunflowers in this garden nearly stopped us in our tracks. We had to sketch at Lea and Jay's garden. I was enamored with this little honor system bench for weighing and paying for u-pick beans. We had very little time to sketch, so this is just a quickie, but I can't wait to go back. There is SO MUCH to sketch there...buildings, animals and of course the sunflowers.
