Putting in details
I get invited to paint at special events from time to time. A good friend of mine is manager at Peebles here in town and invited me to paint there for a special promotion they were doing last spring. They had me back this weekend. I painted a larger version of a small painting (Virginia WIne I, see it here) that I did a few weeks ago and I enlisted a helper. Often, when painting on location, I invite kids to “help” me. And usually they jump right in. This little girl was so much fun. She helped me paint for a while and then she did her grandmothers make-up at a table they had set-up for people to try out some new things. Adorable.
Virginia Wine II, is acrylic on canvas, 18″x24″ and is almost finished. I still have a little more to do to it but we got a great deal done at the event.
