Hello All!
Quite a lot has happened over the spring months. Workshops have been taking up a lot of my time. Here are a few photos from some of them.
 
End of May I enjoyed leading a plein air workshop for the
Veteran Armed Forces at Camp Maple Leaf on Jacob Island.
 
Hamilton Plein Air Festival at Tiffany Falls, Ancaster.
Well done Cheryl-Anne Hills for a successful plein air event!
 
Blue Mountain School of Landscape Painting is always a pleasure meeting new friends, some familiar faces with wonderful volunteers that make it a fun week for all.
Our first day was in studio due to poor weather.
My studio demo was painted from an image of the Beaver River Valley.
Artists followed along.
My plein air demo: "Snow in Summer"
 
A one-day workshop at the Brickworks with the Avenue Road Arts School. Participants painted some terrific paintings at this scenic landmark.
It was a beautiful sunny day to paint in the heart of Toronto with a fun group of artists!
