Yesterday afternoon I attended an event for the Blue Ridge Arts Council (BRAC) here in Front Royal. This event is held every other year and several artists are invited to paint on location while attendees watch their progress. Then the painting is auctioned off for the benefit of BRAC.
Here is Michelle Summers hard at work.
And Charlie Logan….
And Elizabeth Sholder working on her painting.
Kathy Chumley working on a wonderful piece.
And Wilson Webb with a gorgeous painting of the trees with the house in the background.
And I didn’t catch Chris Stephens at the easel but this is his painting. Terrific!
The event was enjoyed by a large crowd who munched on wonderful food provided by local businesses including our great friend Katie Tewell of The Apple House. Many thanks to everyone who helped make the event a success and for supporting the Blue Ridge Arts Council and local art.
