Across the Marsh - Plein Air

SOLD

Another painting from my week on St. Simons Island, Georgia painting with Albert Handell. Our weather was iffy several days - cold and windy - so windy in fact it was impossible to paint unless I kept one hand firmly on the tripod to keep it from blowing over.  I learned this the hard way earlier in the week:)

One of Albert Handell's favorite painting locations on St. Simons Island, Georgia was the marsh area, or as he sometimes called it, the swamp.  Above is my painting of just one of the many views.

Wind Swept - Plein Air

I painted last week alongside master artist Albert Handell in his mentoring program on beautiful St. Simons Island, Georgia.  The mentoring program is different from his workshops as he doesn't teach during the week - he paints with pastels - and a small group of mentees paint with him in the field.  All mentees meet in the evening and Albert critiques the paintings and answers questions on a variety of subjects including career building, materials, techniques, etc. 

It was a wonderful, productive, informative week - what a pleasure painting with Albert and the other mentees!

Painted on a farm in Noblesville last week and it was so-o cold - 47 degrees and cloudy - brr-rrrr!  Too cold for me - fingers and toes were numb.  Painted with Anna Afshar and Tom Devoe.
