Here it is, 2009!
It is already the second week of January and I am well into the new year!
I had taken a hiatus from painting during an exceptionally busy Holiday Season and my home is the gathering place for my Clan. We had Thanksgiving and Christmas here and although it is quite noisy with 6 excited grand kids and a crowded dinner table at times we all enjoy being together "at Grammy's"
I started up a new class the first week after New Year's in Drawing and Sketching. I only have two students in this class which is good for all three of us! I enjoy being able to give instruction one-on-one when we can spend time working out each one's individual problems. I am looking forward to the next seven weeks since both students have a natural talent and are eager to learn!
Friday I returned to my painting too. My good painter friend and I planned to do Plein Air painting but it seemed too cold and foggy so we elected to work in her studio. We each had projects on which to work and spent a half day doing studio paintings together. I wanted to paint The Rogue River Gorge (completed painting above) from a photograph I took about three summers ago. This was my chance! It is great to have immediate feedback sometimes from another artist while you are painting. At other times, however, I need to paint in solitude.
We have committed to doing Plein Air painting on Fridays each week. Let's hope we can continue doing just that for this whole year! Hopefully we can include other "fair weather" painters as we move into warmer weather in about mid February or March!
Thank you for dropping by! I hope you will click on this gallery photo below to see more of my art websites and paintings. Don't forget to come back here to read my journal blog! http://patlblair.webs.com/

WORKSHOP "CREATING & KEEPING ART JOURNALS " MAY 27,2011 . CALL TO RESERVE YOUR SPOT!
VIEW PAT'S FINE ART GALLERY
GALLERY & STUDIO SALES
My Gallery/ Studio is in my home and I am fairly successful in selling my work by having an open house studio/gallery reception about twice a year (one in the Summer and one in early winter.) I find it fun to do and usually set a three hour time for the gallery sale to run. I serve wine and cheeses and spend a lot of time visiting with my friends and neighbors. (Sixteen of my paintings sold in my last sale during a three hour time period!)
Let me know if you'd like to be on my invitation list.
