Tilikum Crossing First Light Event

I’m very humble and honored to be one of 15 plein air artists who was chosen to plein air paint during the Tilikum Crossing First Light Event. The Event is hosted by Trimet on September 10, 2015 at the Collaborative Life Sciences Building, 

This is a private event put on by Trimet. Many Thanks for Brooks Hickerson for granting me that wonderful opportunity. So very excited to be painting with friends Kristina Sellers, Sandra Pearce, Celeste Bergen, Dixie Kroupa for this event as well as many other Portland area plein air painters I admire. Here are some plein air studies for the event. One done with Kristina Sellers and one done with the group practice last Sunday.

Peninsula Art League 2014 Open Juried Art Show

Very blessed to have my painting Blue Morning Mist chosen to be part of the Peninsula Art League 2014 Open Juried Art Show, September 27 - November 15 at the Harbor History Museum in Gig Harbor Washington.

Juror this year is Carla O'Connor, a signature member of the American and National Watercolor Societies.

Blue Morning Mist, 25 x 24 Oil on Linen

This piece is an enlargement of a small 9 x 12 study done at Cannon Beach last year.  The study sold at Forever Art Gallery and owner Carole Bordak asked me to do a larger painting for the gallery.  She felt that the image lent itself to a larger work.

Sadly, Forever Art closed this past May.  I look forward to new venues Carole will be a part of.  I'm so glad Carole encouraged me to do the enlargement.  I didn't get to hang it at her gallery but it has been given the honor of being included in this national exhibition; many thanks Carole, your encouragement and direction has blessed me many times.

The opening reception for the exhibition is September 26th from 6:00 - 8:00 PM.
