The gardens at the Overland Park Arboretum are full of butterflies - and it was a joy to paint them for their very first plein air event! A wedding reception was taking place in the background, and the music wafted up from the terrace as I worked. The temperature was perfect and only gentle breezes stirred the air. Both of my daughters participated, and Mom walked the garden, finding benches in the shade to rest. Their paintings are beautiful, and all will be on display until November 1st at the Long House. What a lovely way to spend an afternoon! Painting number 4624 in 4624 days.

Hello, my friend (we're both artists) and I were watching 'Pete and Pete' on youtube, and happen see a weird name of a town weren't sure existed. So we googled it, it was Keosauqua. And one of your paintings came up on google maps. We enjoyed your painting and pallet set up, so we quickly googled your name and found your blog! Enjoying looking at your work. :)
