Paint the Beach in Full Swing....

Check in was Monday night and went well..all but 5 checked in to begin painting Tuesday.  Kathryn Miller and I are painting buddies and went to Bowditch Park to paint at 8 am.  It was a beautiful morning and we worked away until the stiff offshore breeze forced us to stop.  I think mine is frame worthy and will post it tomorrow.   I drove around a bit taking photos of painters then came home.

This morning was a repeat but worked at the beach near Junkanoo and gallery.  It was a popular place with about 6 of us painting away.  This painting looked very different than yesterdays and may not make it to the frame.  But it was a beautiful day to be on the beach doing what we love to do..a perfect day.  I took a few more photos of the artists and will try to get them on facebook which isn't working well right now.

Tomorrow I must be at the marina for a TV spot..I am first at 5:45 am then Mimi and Neil take over the next four.  Then to unload the art supplies at home and back to the gallery to load up for Friday morning.  At home I'll get my entries framed and load the rest of the gear to be at the venue by about 8 am.  Friday is a very long day and ends when we finish moving the grids to the tent for a 7:30 am Saturday rehang.  Tent opens at 9 and we will have about 50 more pieces of art to fit in after the Quick Draw ends at noon.

by 2 am Sunday I will be ready for my big Margarita from Skyes a tradition well earned.
