This have been a busy month, with plein air painting events cropping up everywhere! I went out with the Delaware Urban Sketchers to Delaware City, where I found a lovely riverfront with plenty of boats to paint.

Earlier this week, I hosted a plein air picnic at my studio for local artists who are traveling with me to France next summer. We also Zoomed with Yves-Marie of Sennelier, who then took us on a video tour of the Sennelier showroom at their headquarters in St. Brieuc (Brittany), France.

Last night, I painted at Winterthur for their Mixers and Elixers event. I was the only plein air artist at the premier event, but they are going to hold this event every last Friday each month this summer and they will now invite more artists to paint at future events.
