Demonstration Painting from Art Walk Finished

For those of you who stopped by my booth at Art Walk and saw a painting I was working on, here is the finished painting.

I came to Art Walk with a blank piece of paper and left with a nearly completed painting. Over the course of two very busy days, there was still enough time to work on the painting.  I very much enjoyed talking to people who stopped by and asked questions.  Many have never seen a pastel being painted.  It was also fun to talk to people who work with pastel about the tools of our trade.

Art Walk 2010 - A Very Successful Show

Last weekend was the Art Walk 2010 show in Winfield.  It was a very busy 2 days with many people stopping by my booth. Thank you for all the nice comments!  Out of 9 works I exhibited, 5 sold during the show.

There is a limit to how many works you can display at Art Walk so I thought I would post some additional paintings that I have available.  Please let me know if you are interested in purchasing any of them.

I am also going to start posting paintings as I finish them, so check back periodically.  If you would like an email letting you know when I have posted something, just let me know.

The prices include standard framing with a single mat.  If you would like to frame the painting yourself, I will reduce the price by the cost of the standard frame.  Sizes listed are of the artwork unframed.

Plein Aire Painting in Manitoba

This summer, I was lucky enough to visit the beautiful lakes of Northern Manitoba. The weather was variable and a couple of days were too windy to get out in the boat. Here are some of the paintings I did on location.  Most involved a watercolour underpainting with a pastel resolution. Enjoy!
