Painting Downtown Easton, oil on panel, 10"x8"

This is the 6th painting I did at Plein Air Easton. Ellen, the artist in the painting volunteered to finish her painting in the sun instead of moving into the shade; this way I could paint her with all those nice cast shadows. As you may have guessed it was incredibly hot. I had to paint fast and completed this painting in less the an hour and a half.

Mama's Boy, oil on linen panel, 11"x14"

This was the third painting I did for Plein Air Easton. I started this one early in the morning; as the sun rose it's reflection in the water almost blinded me. At one point I was about to give up and completely wipe out the painting, but I ended up moving my easel back and finished the painting. I'm glad I did because I like the painting.

Painting the Market (Market Day), oil on linen panel, 11"x14"

This was my quick draw painting that I did for Plein Air Easton this year. I won an Honorable Mention Award for this painting. In this particular quick draw you have 2 hours to complete a painting from start to finish and you must paint from life within a designated area. After some frustration in trying to find a spot I settled on the Easton Farmers Market. This was the first time I have painted a scene with many people moving around. After I was set up fellow artist Scott Llyod Anderson set up right in the middle of my scene. His twin umbrellas added the center of interest that I needed.
