The best part of showing work is reconnecting with friends you haven't seen in a while.
Marla Brenner stopped by Saturday afternoon. She was my design and typeography teacher in college. Rhythm! Thanks Marla!
Nancy Herzog and Chris Gargan were in town on Sunday. I have spent many mornings trying to keep up with Chris... he completes HUGE canvases in the field with luminous color. Teacher, painter and enforcer on the ice - Chris holds it down. Nancy and Chris have both been instrumental in my developement as an artist.
Since the opening, I have been out in the field as much as possible, in blaze orange of course. The days after Thanksgiving were unbelievably sunny and warm, I was able to play catch-up on some plein air painting. Finally, on Sunday, I blocked in a quick still life painting demo for the final day of the opening.
Thanks to Larry, Kay, Dana and Heidi at the Blue Heron for a great time. They know how to throw a party, and thanks to everyone who made it to the show. The work will remain up at the Blue Heron.
