Paintout


Over the weekend, I took part in New Hampshire Plein Air's paintout and wet paint sale at Canterbury Shaker Village. I've painted there many times, with and without the group, but this time my painting was too horrible to contemplate, so I'm posting one I did on my last trip there instead. Still trying for the abstract.....
"Barn Door" It's little, 8" x 6", oil on Raymar panel.

Some Color


A friend came to dinner a couple of weeks ago and brought some flowers from her garden. I painted them and their canning-jar vase in acrylic on an 8" x 6" RayMar canvas panel. Fun. Thanks, Judy.

Another View


This is the same woodcut, printed with the same ink, as the previous post, but done on thin Chine colle paper, then glued to heavier Rives BFK. It looked to me as if Steve was paddling into the sunset. I like trying out different ways of using a block, which is partly why most of my editions are "open."
