Dear Subscribers,

 

Greetings!

 

Workshop stuff:

The February workshop
  in
Texas filled up so quickly that we'll be announcing another identical
workshop for later in 2015. We'll probably figure out the details in a
few months.

 

My in-studio workshop is next weekend! So if I decide to skip next
week's newsletter, you'll know why.

 

Gallery stuff:

There are now only three months left before my Solo Show at RS Hanna
Gallery  . It will
be great to see some of you there. I'm excited about the work in this.
The path through painting has been a process of trying to get closer and
closer to how I want to paint, how I want to see. It is the carrot I
will never totally catch (the carrot keeps evolving), but I can enjoy
getting closer. And this work is the closest I've ever been. I have
begun of tally   of
paintings in the show, and I'll be updating it as October approaches.

 

STUDIO Gallery   is now in their new
location (really close to the old location)! I sent them a new little
painting (more on that in a bit) so I could get in on the celebration.

 

New cityscape.

Here is the raw photo reference:

 
 

Columbia Center. I love that building.

 

You'll notice there is feeling out process in these stages, trying out
some different things before finding what works.

This painting will be a part of my Solo Show at RS Hanna Gallery
  in October!

 

I needed a quick one. A true alla prima (the name for a painting done in
one sitting: "at once"). And I was in the mood to do something from
imagination.

 ....I could get used
to this.
