Watching Paint Dry #2

Just received video of demo from Sunday. On YouTube--Robert Bowden Watercolor Demonstration at PCA. 

Today and next few days are gray, cold rainy not good for plein air. As soon as it clears and warms I will return to river site to finish commission looking towards city skyline.

Watching paint dry!

Just had a demo for Pgh. Watercolor Society. Most stayed conscious .

Class tomorrow for Pitt Osher at Carnegie Museum. Always hand out a step by step to students.

Outstanding exhibition at Carnegie Museum--watercolors by Andrey Avinoff, who was curator of Carnegie Museum of Natural History from 1930 to 1945.

Artist Survey

Please help me in planning my workshop schedule for 2011. Could you take a few minutes and answer a survey that I have online? Your feedback will be extremely helpful.

BTW, should you ever want to do an online survey, I highly recommend SurveyMonkey.

Happy painting,

Charlotte
