Monday Morning at the Dump


Actually it is Alamosa's old power plant which is being take town, bit by bit. As Sue Mc and I painted an excavator tore out big pieces of scrap and the metal guts of the building and heaved them high over head. For some reason tho', I was captivated by the trash barrel; so much personality.

Plein Air SLV goes back to LaVeta

Another plein air field trip to LaVeta and the Miniature Show opening reception at the Spanish Peaks Arts Council Gallery (SPACe).
Actually, we got a little sidetracked, first at the Ricky Tims Quilt Gallery (Ricky Tims, internationally famous quilter, who coined the phrase 'Caveman Quilting'), then at the LaVeta Fine Art Gallery on Main where we met and talked with Bob and Connie Buckner. Bob is a wonderful artist- check out his website at www. robertbuckner.com.
He is also a member of SPACe, so we all met back at the SPACe gallery to see a demo with Vicki Barton a watercolorist from Westminster, Colorado. Everyone gained something from watching Vicki create small gem-like watercolors from nature, with an emphasis on good design, freedom and fun with less stress.

Daily Painter Goes To 7 Mile Plaza


Wednesday Sue Mc and I went out on the 5N road, north of Monte to paint the village of 7Mile PLaza. There is still a lot of snow on the ground but the day was pretty pleasant. I painted with gloves on tho'; that's the true test. A slight breeze put an edge on the sunshine.
