Newport's Goat Island Lighthouse: got all the background and foreground almost done. Just have to block in the lighthouse in black and then do the details.
Cape Anne Fishing Boat : Need to put leaves on the trees and more detail in the background hills and work a bit in the reflections.
I have another one I'm about to start. Its a photo a classmate from Paramus high School posted on the PHS Facebook site of a Lavalette sunrise. For those outside Jersey, its a quiet Jersey Shore town.
I'm continuing my quest for free exposure by displaying in several more libraries in Bergen County. The Maywood one is over at the end of this month. So far, nothing for April but I have New Milford in May, Hillsdale in June and Old Tappan in July. I not sure how long I want to do this, but I'm thinking maybe a years worth of free shows should do it.
Each library has a different way of handling these shows.
Paramus - here's a wall, if you want to fill it, go ahead with no effort on their part.
Maywood - their publicist does on interview and makes a bio for be displayed with the paintings. There a microscopic mention in the local newspaper.
Hillsdale - a online entry form that needs to be coutersigned by a local resident and will put a couple of picture in their newsletter. I do know several people in Hillsdale.
Old Tappan - is sending me a contract. Don't know all thats involved yet.
The adventure continues
