N6048A is an oil on canvas measuring 12″x24″. This was a gift a couple of years ago for Allen but since I just posted the info yesterday about our trip I thought it might be nice to show this painting today. This is often how it looks as we get ready to go, with the mountains in the background.

A New Painting and a Party I Missed

The Red Pottery Barn is an oil on canvas measuring 9″x12″. This is a painting we are working on in our Tuesday afternoon class. It should be finished soon.
Last night I returned home after being gone for just two hours to teach my Thursday evening art class and this is what I found. Apparently Lincoln had a little party while I was away. The sad thing is that all of this “stuff” was up on shelves or on the table when I left. I don’t know how a dog with those short legs can get things from that high up. UGH!!!

A Paint Out

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.

Let the Games Begin

Let the Games Begin is an oil on 9″x12″ canvas and is available for $145.
This is another of those paintings that was started in art class and then I got busy helping students and never got back to it. I am trying to wrap up a few of these and get my stack of unfinished paintings eliminated. I’ll keep at it.
In the meantime, I wanted to share this photo from yesterday morning. My dogs often bark in the backyard, much to my neighbors dismay. This is what I saw laying in her yard and I’m thinking maybe that’s why the dogs are barking so much!

View of the Mountains XIV is an oil on canvas measuring 9″x12″ and is available for $165.
This is a view that I have painted many times as I use this photograph when teaching new students. I like it because it gives someone new to painting an opportunity to learn color mixing as well as several different compositional lessons.
