chester county studio tour

On the road and in the woods the last 3 weeks. Towed a few times and got drenched a few times. Off to the Chester County Studio Tour  this weekend. With any luck I'll pick up a brush soon. Maybe even some plein air work at the show. If you're in the area check it out. It's even supposed to be sunny for a change.

This was my booth at Scarsdale last week. I had to post something. Some folks thought I kicked the bucket. The bucket is full of rainwater. I dare not kick it!

Commerce center show

Here is a slideshow of my work at the commerce center in Philly. The show runs through June. Also, a reminder, I'll be exhibiting this weekend at the Chester County studio tour. Check the link to the right.

Well the studio tour is now over and the remaining paintings are back home. It was an absolute gem of a weekend! Felt like summer and we all set up our booths alongside David's pond/lake. With some mature conifers providing shade and the close proximity to the water, conditions were fantastic. Not to mention the fact that David's wife supplied endless traditional Thai food for the whole weekend. The artists and viewers were well taken care of!





There were very few slow times, but when I had the chance I kept working at a little painting on site. I can't say this is a terribly focused painting. Between watching the schools of fish swim by and keeping an eye on the booth I just kind of had fun with this one. It was warm and green things were rapidly appearing.

I'll soon be getting caught up on what everyone's been up to.

Enlarge this one and try to find the Chester County bugs within the paint. There are several sacrificial critters that got a little too close.
