Finally home for a while after a lot of travel and teaching.  All fun but summer in New England is special.

This 8 x 10 is a demo from my Monday morning oil class

IAPS 2019

DEMO 16 X 20 PASTEL

Just back fro IAPS 2019...The International Association of Pastel Societies conference and show held in Albuquerque, NM every other year.  I juried the regular show with Liz Haywood Sullivan and Sally Strand...both amazing artists and fabulous people...and we were all accepted into the Masters Circle show.  The two were extraordinary.

I also taught a one day workshop and gave a two hour demo.  My horse racing pastel was the demo and the street scene was the demo I gave in the workshop.  Additionally, I was very honored to have my pastel from last year which was awarded the Prix de Pastel grace the cover of the beautiful catalog for the show.

WORKSHOP DEMO 9 X 12 PASTEL

A couple of paintigns

 The city scene was my demo from my oil class and is 8 x 10.  The other is a struggle I'm having in my studio.  I am caught between wanting it to be loose but also read.   It's good to show those struggles sometimes!

NH Pastel Society Workshop

 Wonderful workshop in Hollis, NH with the NH Pastel Society.  The group was very accomplished and it was a fun two days.  Here are my demos...all 9 x 12

Winter Warmth

Winter Warmth is 18 x 18 oil on canvas.  Seemed appropriate since winter is lingering into May
