Putting 2025 to bed and ramping up for an exciting 2026
I squeezed in some plein air painting on the final days of 2025 and used the last few days after Christmas to reflect, dream and plan for 2026. 2025 was a year laced with several art trips, monthly paint outs, competitions and just a few more aches and pains. I'm learning that my body just can't do what my mind thinks it can.
Always looking for better ways to do what I do, I gifted myself a Take It easel. It's larger but so much easier to set up and take down and carry. Hand crafted it is a work of art itself. Downsizing some items and ramping up others as well as a studio reorganization, I'm motivated and excited to get this year started.
I am honored and very excited to have been accepted into the 2026 Paint The Town in Marble Falls, Texas April 19-25, 2026. This will be my first juried competition of this caliber. Hopefully this will be the first of many more.
I'm looking forward to monthly paint outs with my art buddies and the always exciting road trips we love to take!
Let's Go Paint!
