For an outdoor painter, I’m considered a bit of a cold-weather wimp. Finally, tomorrow’s forecast sounds inviting and I will venture up to the Marina in Riverside Park. I am hugely motivated because I’ve been invited to participate in a group exhibition at the Windham Fine Arts Gallery in upstate NY, the theme being Hudson River painted “en plein air.” And, as of this moment, I have no paintings that meet that description. Wish me luck!!

Good Luck!
For what it’s worth: if you ride the Hudson Line, I think there’s a riverside park in Croton-on-Hudson that’s walking-distance from the station. It would take over an hour to get there from Brooklyn, though.
I took a photo there long ago, posted here:

Thank you for the idea. I’ve been up there. I’m hoping to find views closer to home, but I may end up heading further north.
