Plein Air Painter

Plein Air Painter 8"x10" pastel on sanded paper

I have been thinking about building a website for about 10 years, but I never seem to get around to it. So today I am starting this blog. My hope is to show you some of my art, discuss plein air painting and techniques, and give you information on my classes and workshops.

This is a pastel study that I did for an oil comission. The oil is on my easel. I did this study quickly using a limited number of pastels - I want the oil to capture the same freshness.
