Quote

The way to understand art is to go and look at it. And if out of a million visitors there is even one to whom art means something, that is enough to justify museums ( Pierre Auguste Renoir)
"Art is a lifetime matter. The best any artist can do is to
accumulate all the knowledge possible of art and its principles, study
nature and practice continually." (Edgar Payne, 1883-1947)

Cascade Park calls us

Linda Packard's plein air class finally make it outside. The weather cooperated and it was a perfect day.
Even though we did not have a full class those that attended did some wonderful work.
instructor Linda finds a good spot to paint

Mike found his spot under a shady tree

Sheila scopes out her spot

Michelle see trees to paint

Rita begins her painting

Michelle beautiful rendition of the park bench

These trees were drawn by Michelle. Incredibly beautiful.

Sheila painted the fountain and captured the splashing water. So
great....and refreshing.

Nancy's drawing is as beautiful as her finished painting. Frame that one, Nancy.


Nancy's finished painting that she did with palette knives and 3 colors. Wow.
Just wonderful.
