REgarding the original answer... accommodation;
We have a spare room (Double Bed) for a couple of days if you don't
mind a madhouse and two dogs.. :D
There is lots to do while you are here and I hope to be free to paint,
guide, etc. Can you let me know your dates in Dublin and where you are
staying, or if you would like to stay here. I am hoping to go down to
Wexford also, depending on my fishing duties (National team practice)
but either way I would love to meet you in Dublin. There are a number
of spots for some plein air, there are Galleries galore, open studios
at IMMA (modern art museum) in Kilmainham, and St Annes park in
Raheny, (North side) amongst other delights.
Regards,
Greg.

I was out painting and got a call fm my mom who already came in at the airport. I had kept painting even though I knew I should leave and pick here up. I threw everything in the car and sped around the corner and ran face to face w a police officer. He asked for my licsense which I could not find because it was loose in my purse. He asked for my registration which my husband took out to put the new one in. That was not good for 5 days. He asked what I was doing before he pulled my over and if I was late for something. He went to his car, came back and gave me a warning. He said, " By the way, you've got paint all across your face and walked away laughing. I looked in the mirror and I had a big yellow hand print all across my face. Typing this on my phone and I can't edit it so ....

I love your work and your enthusiasm. I've only been been doing plein air for about 6 months now. I took a class from John Guernsey through the museum last spring

and I really was influenced. I've been painting all my life but learned for the first time how to really paint outdoors. Since then I've spent every free weekend trying to get good enough to be professional. I still have a ways to go but it's a labor of love and I really don't have any choice —I'm obsessed. I just sent my ap into Roswell for the competition at the end of Sept—I suppose you are are already in. Do you do some weekend painting in the area? I would enjoy getting together anytime. Also I run my own small ad agency out of my basement — I make a decent living but would rather paint.
Kimbrel just set the record!
I live up off Sandy Plains and have some great spots near here.
Anytime.

Ed

I am having a problem adding to my page. When I click on "Customize your page" or "Add content," and then I try to do something, I get the circle with the line through it icon, and it won't let me add content or do anything.

Am I missing some step?
