It's been a while since my last post, a very busy summer, with many plein air days.
I want to give special thanks to a sweet couple from Pennsylvania, who were on a bike trip through the Champlain Islands, and purchased the pastel painting above, "Mustard Field". They told me that this painting would be a special remembrance of their trip to Vermont. I am honored.
One of the favorite places I painted this summer was the Snow Farm Vineyard in North Hero Vermont. It's a beautiful location on the west shore of the island, with many great views. In August, I was fortunate to teach a plein air painting workshop at the vineyard. It was so much fun, I had terrific students, and the weather was perfect. I'm hoping to teach many more of these workshops in the future.
All in all, it was a very productive summer, meeting some wonderful people, and I am grateful for the opportunity to have been able to paint at so many beautiful locations here in the Champlain Islands.
