My watercolor is of Raritan Avenue, between North Third and North Second Avenues. One of the stores is Jerusalem Pizza. The one on the end, by the big tree, used to be Charlie Brown’s, which went out of business. A new restaurant appears to be opening in its place. Here is a sketch I did prior to this watercolor.
Beautifully done Leora, you have a very delicate hand with color.

Hi Leora,
Beautiful water colours!
thanks for visiting my blog and commenting. Here’s a link to a blog on cooking wild greens ie that invasive mustard: http://www.pennilessparenting.com/search/label/forag
Thanks for visiting, Barb!
This is really a fine piece of art. It must be great to be able to express oneself through painting.
“must be great” – it should be, though I think lately I have been more uptight about doing art. I am my own biggest critic, for sure.
This is absolutely beautiful, so very nostalgic looking and quite the fine art example.
You are so talented.
Thank you!
I’m so privileged to be allowed into your gallery to day.
The street is so harmonious depicted, made me want to go for a walk in the peaceful spring surroundings.
Raritan was an intriguing word. I found it’s a community on NJ, but not the offspring of the word.
I hope to see more of your works later.
Interesting about the sketch. You do have classical art education, eh?
Felisol,
I went to a traditional art school (BU) for one year. I also took numerous art classes. I do prefer a realist, traditional approach to art.
Lots around here is named Raritan – the Raritan River, Raritan Community College, Raritan Valley.
You render a uniquely American street-scape beautifully. Makes me nostalgic.
Thanks for sharing your gorgeous painting with us, and shavua tov!
this is beautiful
This is an exceptional painting. The colors are lovely and the scene is so soothing.
