My friend
Randall David Tipton recently organized a plein air excursion to
Minto-Brown Island Park near Salem, Oregon. It was a great kick-off to Oregon's plein air season. The weather cooperated, allowing us to paint a couple scenes in the morning and early afternoon before it got cold and drizzly again. Although
Celeste Bergin and I often paint together, sometimes at
Kat Sowa's Studio 30, I'd never painted with Randall before and was excited to see him in action. It was a treat to meet artists, whom I'd only known and admired "on line" until that day including
Carol Marine,
Ruth Armitage, Jo Reimer,
Annie Salness, and
Sarah Sedwick! I
hope we'll have many chances to paint together again in the future.
Here are my two paintings from the day and those of some of the
other artists.
