February 8, 2014.

Hello Everyone!

I am very excited to say that I have been one of the artists chosen to go to Plein Air Aspen in July! I feel very honored to be accepted into such a prestigious Plein Air Competition. I want to thank the Sheridan Arts Foundation for letting me be a part of this wonderful experience. I look forward to painting in Aspen, Colorado. I've never been to Colorado and this is a great reason to go!

Since being accepted, I have been hiking with my art supplies, bringing up my stamina for the trip. Also, I started plein air painting again! Here is my first plein air painting of many for this year!

This is my new Plein Air Easel, the Guerilla Cigar Box! It's a great sturdy and small easel that is light and easy to travel with. If interested in the Guerilla easels, you can check out their website: http://www.guerrillapainter.com/accessories.html

I painted this particular painting in Simi Valley at Rocky Peak Park! It's a beautiful location, with amazing Rocky mountains to look at in every direction. I only hiked part way up, so I plan on returning and venturing deeper into the park.

In a couple weeks, I plan on starting up a new Plein Air Painting workshop. Expect Rocky Peak Park to be one of our many destinations. Look soon for the information on my up and coming workshop!

As always, thanks for reading my blog! Talk to you all sooner than later!
