Plein Air Convention 2016

 Just back from the Plein Air Convention 2016 in Tucson, Arizona.  It was amazing!  I met some of my absolute artist heroes, painted and demonstrated.  The horses are my pastel demo.

Lily Pads

"Lily Pads" was started in my studio and mostly done with a palette knife.  I brought it to my oil class to finish as a demo.  I thought it would be good for my students to see it transform from mostly an abstract painting of color fields into this more descriptive painting of a pond.  It's 18 x 24 oil on canvas
