A Fine Home

It was nice to see so many of you turn out at the opening last night of Three Artists Paint Their County. Yes, the gallery is air conditioned and the show will continue until August 22; wed-sat 11-5 and sunday 12-4. 570-278-4011

I love this spot. I've painted it before. This time a small trailer (mobile home, RV?) had appeared in the window created in the trees. I like the winter landscape colors and most of all the open expanses of sky, field and view. The tongue in cheek title is actually a sincere expression of what I think constitutes a "fine" home; fresh air, clean landscape, nature all around and plenty of long distance views. It is included in the Three Artists Paint Their County Exhibit at the Butternut Gallery in Montrose. It is 18 x 18 image size.

I'm Off to Wisconsin & Minnesota

The Studio will be closed* until August 5 when I return from the Door County Plein Air Festival where I am an invited participant in a busy week of painting & exhibiting. Then over to Duluth to visit friends. Then solo drive back. I hope to make some good paintings, meet some new people, see some old friends, learn something about the art of bonsai, set a personal high mpg record in my Prius, listen to two audio books and see miles of landscape and sky!

In the meantime my paintings can be seen at The Butternut Gallery, Schulman Gallery at Luzerne County Community College and EMCA Auction show. Check my website for more info.

*closed to bears & birds, too....see previous entry.
