Summer events!

 The spring season is in full blast, and I've been so busy traveling and teaching that my garden is looking mighty neglected. I haven't had time to shop for plants, much less actually stick them in the ground, and the deer and rabbits have already feasted on my hostas and the squirrels are busy stealing my bulbs. I'm sprinkling cayenne pepper on the garden and it seems to be helping a little bit. 

I think there are still a few spots left in my online zoom workshop for Art Guild of Louisiana in May, check out their website to sign up. Everything else is already sold out for the rest of the year, so this is probably the last chance to take one of my workshops this year! 

Last week I painted live, en plein air during the Wine thru Daffodils event at Winterthur. It was a great event  and I painted and sold two paintings. My next plein air painting event at Winterthur is May 13th, for the Bourbon and Bluegrass event -- get your tickets now and be sure to come out and see me paint live, en plein air!

I also painted in the Quick Draw plein air contest in the Marietta Plein Air last week, I was scheduled to paint in the whole plein air event but had to drop out at the last minute because I was under the weather, so I was only able to go at the end of the event to participate in the Quick Draw. It was a good event, so I'll go back again next year.

I added a few new events this summer, and then I'm off to France for the month of June to paint with my old friend Yves-Marie Salanson of Sennelier. I'm taking several other artists with me on this trip and we are looking forward to visiting the Brittany coast and painting the gorgeous views.
