Thanks Anne. I am headed to Ghost Ranch, New Mexico at the end of August for 10 days of painting with some girlfriends. My annual "it is all about me" trip.
Hey Anne... so great to see you here! Please keep September 12th & 13th open to paint with us... Several plein air painters from OOPS and the Oreintal crew are gathering In New Bern on those dates to take part in IPAP's international paint out. We'll be there both days all day... join us when you can.
