Mothers Day Weekend.

The Plein Air Convention

There was a wonderful time to be had of learning and meeting fellow artists at the Plein Air Convention at the Red Rock Casino this past weekend.  The rain didn't stop the artists from painting at Spring Mountain Ranch State park on Saturday; and Sunday was the grand finale at Bonnie Springs/Old Nevada with lots of artists set up to paint the landscape. I think we set a world record! Looking forward to next year in Carmel! Thanks to Eric and all the others at Plein Air Magazine for making this happen.

Plein Air painting at Spring Mountain Ranch and Bonnie Springs, Nevada this weekend with a record number of artists, over 750! This is sure to be an "exciting" event. Hopefully, the snow won't reach our elevation!

RI.P. Thomas Kincade.  From Elizabeth B. of Arizona: There is a lot of snarky elitism in the art world. Mr. Kinkade was a master of color, composition and light, and lots of people find pleasure in his work. That his paintings make people happy is, I guess, a mortal sin in the arrogant art critics' minds. Galleries are filled with bad art that doesn't resonate with anyone and doesn't sell, but extolled by "art critics". We need to remember that many art critics are unsuccessful artists.

Preview Thursday

The set up at the Arts Factory: getting lots of comments!
