New Plein Air Efforts and one model

 Plein Air at Clay Garden and Gifts...what a great place!

 Lee was our model at Cafe Bienville......

Another plein air effort at Cessna Park.

Kate at Cafe Bienville

Kate was our model today at our Cafe Bienville Artists group.  It is great to have a few more painting days before we depart again.  The Canadian Maritimes were wonderful....Scandinavia should be perfect!  And Florida will be nice again by the time we return!

Glad to be back!

Florida in the summer is challenging.  We escaped for three weeks to the Canadian Maritimes and adored the weather, the countryside, and the people.

 I was happy to return to my art buddies....plein air painting at Hogtown bayou and Gail at Cafe Bienville....

Amber at Cafe Bienville

Cafe Bienville Ladies

Enjoyed painting models Laura, Alandra, and Wilhemina at Cafe Bienville in between trips home to Nashville.  One watercolor and two  oils on canvas.... all 11 X 14.

A few water colors after a wonderful trip

We took a winter trip to South America and of course I took way too many photos but we found some wonderful places and beautiful people and will look forward to returning again.   I drew a little but never painted...not that kind of trip.

It is great to get back and see my artist buddies...and do a little work.  All of these were completed in watercolors .....a really good change.  My goal is to create complete works....not my usual WC sketches...

More Bienville Ladies

Laura posed again....
