Hi there guys! This is just a quick note to say that I have a class this Saturday on loosening up your painting style, which I know is something a lot of people want to do. It’s 1-5 at the Corbin Art Center. I’ll be sharing all of my tips and tricks to loosen that death grip you have on your brush and let the paint fly with joy and verve. It’s going to be fun!

It was entertaining to pick out example paintings that I felt were both loose but also have a fall vibe! I love fall (though not the season that approaches afterward) and I think Spokane has fabulous autumns. Currently delighting me are the changing colors of the leaves and the crisp morning air followed by the mellow warm ness of late afternoon. Oh and the onset of sweater season. I love me some soft, squishy knit sweaters! What are you loving about fall?
Finally, please read down to the end to get the deets on the 33 Artists show at the Hive-my one show for October and the second to last show I’m doing this year. It’s on the 26th. Hope to see you there!
A Tithonia (Mexican Sunflower), grown in my garden and painted BIG (17” x 17”-ish)
A pumpkin field painted at Siemer’s Farm up at Green Bluff a few years back on a beautiful autumnal evening.
A painting inspired by a drive home in early November where a rain/hailstorm lifted right about sunset and I saw this out my window and I immediately pulled over!
Oh and for those of you who read to the bottom-I’ll be at this show on the 26th at the Hive (a super cool library building on Sprague) and I’d love to see you!
