Saturday's Paint Out!

This Saturday I'll be joining a group artists in the Merrimack Valley, painting en plain air during the day, and auctioning off those paintings in the evening. Other exciting items will be auctioned off as well, by everyone's favorite weatherman/auctioneer, Matt Noyes! The event benefits the Essex Art center in Lawrence, MA.

Here's a rainy day view out the window of my 3rd floor office. Painted on the iPad.

Two exciting upcoming events!

Saturday, June 2: Once again, I'll be spending the day painting a scene somewhere in the Merrimack Valley, to be auctioned off that evening at a wonderful, catered fundraising gala. What a great opportunity to bid on an original painting by one of the 30 artists participating.
For more info or to buy tickets to the auction, go here: essexartcenter.com/newpaint

Sunday, June 3: I'll be exhibiting in the annual Beacon Hill Art Walk — one of my favorite shows. Stroll through the beautiful, hidden back yards and gardens of Beacon Hill, while taking in the fine art offerings of the artists participating in this juried event. My location will be posted here later. For more info, go here: beaconhillartwalk.org.

Hope to see you!

Tiny iPhone painting

I was trapped in the kitchen this morning. Not wanting to leave the steaks on the Jenn-Aire (who cooks steaks at 7AM? Long story) unattended to go upstairs and grab my iPad, I opened the Brushes app on the comparatively tiny iPhone, and painted this little slice of the back yard.
