"Surf Training"
16 X 20 Oil on canvas
Well it's official, "Surf Training" has been juried into the Coast Guard 2010 Art collection.
 I received notice that the Salmagundi Excellence Committee juried in the painting and I've already
sent the painting back east to be framed for the collection. I am very proud to have this painting
in the 2010 CG Collection.

This was my first time in this show down in Temecula, California. I met some great artists and 2 days having a fun time.
Gallery owners Laura Segal from Segal Fine Art in Monrovia along with Jazminka & Jim Gabrie of Galerie Gabrie in Pasadena
did a fantastic job of organizing and running the event.


Artists Rich Gallego and Steve Curry at the show reception.


Myself trying out a spiffy new French easel I had just bought. Mornings were a bit hazy but the sun came out in full force eventually.
This is a very fun event and the Gallery owners deserve all the credit for putting on a very good show.

Santa Ynez Valley Artist Studio Tour 2009

This years studio tour was hampered by the sluggish economy but half of the reason to do
the show is to hear from the people who buy the art.
This is a really fun event and I love the chance to talk to those interested in my work. I'm looking forward to the next show.
 
One wall in the studio showing the wares. I like to bring the people on the tour into the studio
and then in the house to see more of the work...the larger pieces etc.

Rancho Arbolado
 
I have been asked by the Wildling Museum in Los Olivos to do a plein air painting for this years Wildling's Spring BBQ
which will be held at Rancho Arbolado. The painting is donated by me and will be auctioned off to help the museum out.
The Wildling Museum is a great organization with outstanding exhibits.
I was able to pull off 2 16"x20" paintings the day I went to Rancho Arbolado...much larger than usual but there was plenty of
reference material in the form of fantastic views. Here is the onew that will be auctioned off....
