Painting With Other Artists


I met with several well known artists for a day of painting in Audi Stanton's studio. We worked on still life and photographs. We talked about life, art and great artists. Audi did a wonderful oil painting of Harris Beach. Rob Decker used watercolor and pastel to create a masterful still life with a blue plate, a watermelon slice and a plum. Verna Pooler did a striking watercolor of the same setup. Kathy Huxley painted an orange. watermelon slice and cobalt blue vase with her well known broad brush strokes in oil. It was lovely. There was a lot of talent in the room and it showed.
Here is my piece for the day. I needed one more session to make it complete but I am happy with the study.
Thank you, again, Audi, for opening your studio to all of us. What an amazing day.
