Finished this small acrylic painting yesterday at a Paint out for Alzheimer's. It was at a local retirement assisted living facility in Venice Florida. The turn out was about 30 local Plein Air Artists from the area. They provided us with an extremely delicious lunch and after there was an cocktail wet paint sale with invited guests. Four paintings sold and I was honored to be one of them. So it was a very productive day. Has any one else done one of these paint outs?

I entered this painting at the Venice Art Center Abstract show. It is an acrylic "Cannas No 1". opening is tomorrow. Hoping for the best.

First Blog

This is my first blog, but I hope that this will be a journal of my art life.
Complete with paintings , feelings, questions and hopes and dreams that I will be able to share with other artists. I have looked at many blogs out there and they all give something that is good and should be shared. As artists, we are often separate and alone in our life and studios. Here we are able to share our hopes and dreams, as well as our fears and questions.

I hope to make some friends and share ideas.
