Good Morning All!
Just wanted to let you know how much Fun I had and what a great day it was to paint en Plein Air at the La Verne Celebration of the Arts yesterday. It was a perfect day for it; cool and somewhat overcast, but with a nice even light that lasted through out the day. I got to paint along side Eric Davis, Stephanie Dahle, Juan Carlos Boxler, Chuck Fogg, and Lorna Skeie. The art show itself was great with works not only from the artists listed above, but all different expressions of artwork created by Lisa Stamatis, Julia Stubblefield, Nick Rybacki, Stephen Rybacki, Jennifer McCartney and John Blickenstaff to name only a few of the artists present. I hope you had a chance to attend! :)
