"Alicia Painting" (sold)


8"x6"
Oil on Board

This week I have the good fortune of taking a workshop by artist Kim English. This is a quick study of one of the other participants that I painted yesterday. We are in Newport, Oregon and had a gorgeous day on the bayfront yesterday, painting boats and docks and each other. To watch Kim paint is well worth the $$ of being here. Today we began on the beach on a cloudy day which, unfortunately turned to a wild downpour in the afternoon. We tried really hard to paint but had to quit in favor of a dinner of fresh caught crab, salmon and cod. Not bad! Tomorrow, though, we are back inside painting the figure. Really looking forward to that!

This is gorgeous, Vicki. I am not sure you need the workshop! I am anxious to hear more though - I am taking his class in Nov. and I can't wait.
