All’s well that ends well. Isn’t that what they say? I left you good folks last week in Pinedale, WY while I was waiting for my car to get fixed so I could get on the road. UPS had delivered and I was on my way home with-in a little over an hour. BOOM! I did stop at the Mountain …
The Maynard Dixon Artist Campout has just concluded. I’m sitting back in camp with an adult beverage, thinking about what a wonderful experience this has been. This is not a plein air competition but rather a gathering of artists for 5 days culminating with an artist’s reception in the main gallery on Friday evening and today with what was called a wet …
At least it feels like I’m in a foreign country. I’m in Los Gatos, California for the Los Gatos Plein Air Festival. I got here Monday evening and am camped in the driveway of my host Elaine Seid. What a wonderful lady. She has been very gracious and helpful. So thankful she drew my name, or however they decide who …
As you know, I’ve been off on a painting adventure into northern Minnesota and the North Shore of Lake Superior. Last week I reported from Cooperstown, ND where we narrowly escaped a shelf cloud storm. Our travels since then have taken us as planned. It is really flat across most of that country, at least from the Black Hills in …
Our Thanksgiving Day was full of winter adventures and the Land of OZ…Kansas that is. We left for OZ on Thursday pulling our Arctic Fox travel trailer headed right into a major winter storm warning full of freezing rain, ice, snow and wind. What the heck. I’m an adventurous sort and our Arctic Fox trailer is a four seasons model …
The weather cleared and all was wonderful. We had to wait but finally it happened although it was Friday, our last day in the area. I did manage to get a couple of watercolors done though. The colors had just exploded overnight. It was spectacular. This one is on the old Wilson Rd. just south of Moose, if you are familiar with …
Before I get to what I want to tell you about I thought you might enjoy this rendition of “What a Difference a Day Makes”. Pretty impressive for a 9 year old girl. I guess that’s pretty impressive regardless of age. OK, maybe it’s actually what a difference two days makes. It began raining on Tuesday, off and on, so …
Learn to Paint the Unexpected- Artist Daily blog on Joseph Alleman. I first saw Joseph’s work in Jackson, Wy at the Astoria Gallery several years ago. He does some great watercolors. I’m headed up that way in the morning and you can bet I’ll stop by and observe his work first hand again. I’ll be posting the week long stay in Jackson for …
I guess I knew it had to happen sooner or later. I’m just as glad it’ll be sooner. I’ll be returning to The North Country this summer. They say that once you’ve been to The North Country you never really leave. I have found that to be true. This is one of the posts you probably missed because of the …
All good things must come to an end. I left Bakersfield this AM and got as far as Beaver, UT. Good progress considering the time I left and a good place to call it quits for the night. Windy, snow, getting dark with conditions deteriorating rapidly. Got a room and am comfortably writing this with assistance from an adult beverage. …
