Just before I moved, I painted a 6×6” canvas for the BAC Fundraiser.
I went to one last meet up with “The Basement Painters” at the BAC in the newly renovated building. They have a wonderful new workspace with great company.
Here’s where the 6×6 paintings hung. It’s a very successful event.
I went an Artist Retreat at Pointer’s Ridge in late June. We painted in Plein Air along the Big Sioux River. 8×10” Acrylic on Canvas Board.
I did a portrait of an old Dutch Elm stump, and had some fun with it! 9×12” Acrylic on Canvas Board.
Here is the quaint little A-frame we stayed in.
This weekend I went to my first Cincinnati Paint Out.
The setting was a historic German Town sponsored by the Woman’s Art Club. This group was founded in 1892, originally because the Cincinnati Art Club excluded Woman. Today neither club excludes genders.
I chose to paint at the Mariemont Concourse, which overlooks the Ohio River Valley. I started early in the day, and finished in 3 hours, fortunately before the heat of the afternoon.
It was a great experience!
There were about 60 artists attending, who were friendly and welcoming.
Here I am with my painting that SOLD.
10×20″ Acrylic on Canvas with 1.5″ painted gallery wrap edges.
Hot off the easel! “Beyond the Fields” the 8×10″ Canvas Board
I have primary sold my work locally. I’m officially starting to sell my work online at the Daily Paintworks, an Online Gallery, I especially like the artists who are represented there.
Hot off the easel! “Prairie Fields” 8×10″ Canvas Board Dreaming about beautiful sunny days, and freezing my behind!
This is reality! 😀
I enjoyed working with textures in this painting.
“Rolling Up the Carpet #14″ 9×12” Canvas Board
I feel like I’m getting more fluid again with my landscapes. “Prairie Fields” 8×10 Canvas Board
I enjoy making pictures with Hay Bails, but I have never painted them covered in snow.
“Frosted Wheats #1″ 5×7” Canvas Board
I’m thinking of sunshine and flowers, while our first blizzard hits. Yesterday our yard was a healthy green. Today it wears a blanket of snow, but it’s pretty too.
The first image is the under painting, and the second is the finished work. 8″x10″ acrylic on canvas board.
I want to do another version of “Valley of Enemy Creek” It was one of my best projects and I want to be able to exhibit the work.
I started again with a study because I might as well make some adjustments to the composition, since it doesn’t need to be exactly as it is in real life.
Mainly I move the tree to the right, and changed the direction of the water in the foreground. The first painting I did is in recent posts.
The study is 9×12″ and the final will probably be 18×24″.
