Friday's Demo

Here's my 'demo'  from this past Friday's Marietta ArtWalk. It's a view of the Cobb County courthouse, as seen from the Art Museum porch.  Thanks to the Cobb/Marietta Art Museum and education director, Emily Ryals, for hosting the event; and thanks to those that came to watch the demo.

Here's an update of some of my upcoming events:

9/12.....studio class begins / Art School at Sandy Springs

9/17.....Art in the Square / Gainesville, GA  (10am-5pm)

9/24.....plein air class begins / Marietta/Cobb Museum of Art

9/28-10/1....Great Roswell / Chattahoochee River Plein Air Festival  (reception 10/1)

10/20,21.....Plein Air Festival / Smith Gilbert Gardens, Kennesaw, GA  (reception 10/21)

Last week I was invited to attend the opening for artist Joe Remillard's show at Kennesaw State University. Joe is a professor there and his work is phenomenal.  His paintings are wonderfully detailed and realistic, and show a real understanding of light (which is not always evident in many realistic works), and are also interesting in their subject matter and story telling. The show remains until October 4th, and you must try to catch it if you can.

Well, that's all for now.......hope to see you at one of the 'events' !
