Had fun as the instructor of a watercolor class in our cousins’ town, Dromara, County Down, Ireland. We made a postcard-sized picture and a larger one. Key points of the class: handling brushes and controlling the paint, mixing colors, creating distance in a landscape, and achieving texture. Great craic.

Members of the East End Arts Council painted in different locations on the North Fork of Long Island one day and spectators were given a map to be able to see the work in progress. That evening, the work was celebrated with a reception and auction.
Ten artists, including my self, were invited to this residency program wherein we each stayed with a different farm family and met at different locations throughout the week to paint landscapes. The week included painting on location at farms and parks, education about farm life, and art exhibits. The program is called The Fields Project.
