Cabin in the Woods

 This painting of the dining hall from across the lake is a demo for one of my sessions at the High School Plein Air sponsored by the Steelville Arts Council at Camp Brim Shire.  We talked about the water, and keeping the movement horizontal, reflecting the colors down into the lake from above.  Mentoring at this event each year has been so rewarding.  I love to see such growth in the students in just a few days.  I hope they carry this new found knowledge into their futures, with many more paintings to come!  Painting number 4655 in 4655 days. 

Sunset Geese

 I am currently mentoring at the High School Plein Air hosted by the Streelville Art Council, and am having so much fun!  For my evening session, we divided our time in half to paint both a sunset and a nocturne!  The kids did marvelous paintings for each, and learned some new skills, too.  We're at Camp Brim Shire, and have had so much fun exploring the whole place with paint!  Painting number 4653 in 4653 days.
