First Draft

I don't post much so thought I would show this piece I am working on. More next time

I saw a terrific DEMO at The Rowley Gallery last Saturday. Carole Rabe is a teacher at Mass Art and a  beautiful, confident painter of Interiors. She uses a limited palette and only paints on location using varied, rich greys and tans to build her painting.

HIGH HEAD

HIGH HEAD
12x12 oil on panel

I woke up smiling on my last day in Provincetown with visions of color, shapes, values swirling around my brain. This has been a wonderful experience and hard to leave. I took a plein air oil class with Mary Giammarino, fellow Rowley Gallery artist yesterday. We painted with putty knives.
I also attended Stephanie Roberts Camello's Opening at the School House Gallery last night. Love her work.

When NANCY HARTLEY shows where she is going with her work...I listen up! She took JENNY NELSON'S workshop a couple of weeks ago in CA and I was impressed. I also noticed that Jenny was teaching a workshop right here in Provincetown at The Provincetown Art Museum. 12 hours later, I too was doing these different exercises...Stay tuned.
