BFA is just around the corner

Come out to Wilmington, Delaware this weekend for the Brandywine Festival of Arts. Go to http://www.brandwinearts.com/ for all the details. My booth will be along the railroad track, just in front of the music venue (it was a great spot last year). I have lots of new work that I have been posting here, so come out and see it (maybe even buy one!).

Irene Activity—Oriole painting

Hunkered down in the house to ride out Irene. Here's what I painted today. We'll see what tomorrow brings.

Sunny Morning Dog

After a tough weekend of trying to get inspired, I settled on this subject for the latest painting. I took some pictures of dogs playing in the surf at Dewey Beach on vacation. I thought this made a pretty good image. I included a couple of step photos to see it develop.

Another Beach Painting—Although Not of the Beach

I have been holding on to this idea for a while and wanted to get it done for the BFA. I had some source photos, so I took them down with my portable easle to the beach last week and put paint on canvass. Som of my observers were a bit confused wondering where I was seeing a river scene with a heron while looking out to the Atlantic. Made for interesting conversation.

Beach Painting--last week

I painted three paintings at the beach last week. One I gave to Barbara—The Don of Dewey. This is one for BFA (almost here!) of the dunes. Got to get busy!

Banner Website

The website for this year's Arts in Easton Banners is up and offers the ability to bid on-line prior to the end of the program. There are some really fantastic paintings to see. If you are in the Easton, Maryland area, it is a lot of fun to walk around town and look at the artwork in person.

Go to http://www.theavalonfoundation.com/ and click through to the banner program. Hope you come and see them.

New Painting—Oxford Path

Latest painting finished. Have to get going on creating stock for BFA! September will come quickly. Working on several other projects and now lax is done for the season. Getting busy.
