"I've seen this on FB and think it is so very nice. Love the energy of the crisscross shapes and that mix of the blue gray in the foreground."

Brought some sketching stuff on holiday
We are in Switzerland visiting our daughter, and though it has been cold and rainy I have managed to get out sketching a few times to make some small studies. The first one is in Goldeau, inktense pencils and water in a 4x6 Moleskine knockoff. It didn't take the watercolor very well, but was a lovely site and with a field of noisy cows (huge cowbells) nearby I had my oen personal concert accompaniment.…

Plein Air Painting in Florida - My 14th State in the Quest to Paint in all 50 States
A couple of weeks ago I returned from a trip to plein air paint in Florida - my 14th State out of the 50 so far. I have just finished writing my Travelog about the trip. Here is the link to read the stories as well as view the paintings I did: Painting Florida.

Around when the leaves began to bud out and changed the look of the landscape. Too much green for me.
I now have triple what I need to have my show in September. Suzie is going crazy thinking she…

OPA show and painting around Fredericksburg, TX
This past weekend I exhibited in the OPA National Show. While I was in Fredericksburg, TX, I went to the OPA paintout at the art school and property. I will be teaching a workshop there in Oct, so it was a perfect time to paint there and check out the grounds. There were so many choices to paint, old buildings, unique cabins, water, roads, gardens, trees, farm equipment, fields, everything and anything.
Since I've…

Mondays plein air
Today was able to get out in the sunshine to paint. I find it difficult to get inspired when its rain or cold to paint outside.
This is a 6x6 in oil on masonite board. I have been preparing my boards lately with W&N modeling paste applied with a credit card. It has just the right amount of tooth to drag the paint off.…
