Today is the last day for the painting display in the big tent at Santini Plaza. The art is beautiful and all the artists had a great time participating in the event. Many ideas for making next year's even better are going through our heads.
George and I are exhausted from being at the tent for about 5 days running. I painted on Tuesday and Wednesday last week and had those two paintings to display. I was lucky to have that time to paint. Both were pastels done on prepared board and framed with glass and spacers to look similar to the oils. Nice comments but no prize. I had fun though and that is why I paint.
My raffle donation was very popular and won by Jo List, a local woman who sang at the gala. I think she was very happy and left many others disappointed that they did not win it.
Have a wonderful Thanksgiving!

Bowditch and Paint the Beach
Tomorrow our competition starts with the first artist's check-in. We are all nervous and excited for the painting to begin. Almost 50 artists will be painting around town this week which should be a treat for visitors to the area. Kathryn and I will begin at the beach on Tuesday.
Interesting to observe, the painting titled "Bowditch Morning" and "Beach Branches" are from almost the same location on Bowditch Beach Park. The branches at the left of the latest on are the same branches in the earlier view. The beach as you can see has been renourished remarkably and is wide and beautiful.

Do you call this a studio?
Spent a busy week with some painting and some meetings. Studio, if you can call it that, is backed up with work to finish or frame. I think this one is frameable....
