Done at a Genesee Valley Plein Air Painters paint-out at my farm in Point Breeze. It was a amazing to see the variety of paintings which all of these different artists created of a place that is so familiar to me. On display at Genesee Country Village in Mumford, now through Oct. 28.
This is the same view of Irondequoit Creek as a few paintings below. This is a great location and I could go there in any season since it's such a beautiful spot.
Black Creek Park in Chili tends to be very manicured, which I find unappealing. However, that forces me to look harder to find the right view to paint. I think it makes me a better artist since it forces me to use more creativity. On display at the Genesee Country Village in Mumford, now through Oct. 28.
It was a warm day in March. I tend to be very cautious when I go out to paint, but the temptation to go out on the ice to capture this scene was too hard to resist. The whole time I was out there, I could hear the ice melting under my feet. Very weird. Winner of Honorable Mention in Suburban Rochester Art Group Fall 2008 Show.
