When artist friends spend time together they paint! Doreen sat for me late one night. You can see this is a rough sketch, it was way past my normal bedtime, but I am liking the softness and a look that is her.

Coal Bucket Still life
Some days in winter Plein Air painting is not practical, so we meet at Anita's, or another artist's home. Anita arranges interesting things for still lives. I sometimes add or rearrange or not.

Mill Creek Trail
First snow painting this year! The tree to the right in the foreground was a study in texture. The day was overcast.

Gourds With Still Life
Painted in Anita's Kitchen. She found these gourds for practically nothing. What a super addition to a challenging arrangement.

The Scarlet Tea Pot
Another still life painted in Anita's kitchen. The scarlet tea pot will go down in history as recorded by artists who paint Anita's still lives! The uplighting gave the red glow similar to coals of fire.

The Yellow Brick
This 1890 yellow brick house caught my eye as we drove into Fredricktown. The color popped against the grey skies, and the reflections on the wet street gave some imaginary warmth to the cold day.

Red Iron Bridge
One weekend this fall I met three artist friends to paint and fellowship. It is evident the skies were grey & a chilly rain dampened our time outside. This was my first painting along a back road in Holmes County.

Autumn Color
In November I met Kathy at Kriedler Gardens to paint the last of the fall leaves. This tree was unbelievably brilliant.
