organic farm

bob carr and myself went on our friday outing to plein air paint at the organic farm on hwy 264 and had a great time. the weather was a little cool, but a great change from our hot days we have had.

i painted a couple of barns.

don't know what happened to all of our painting buddies, maybe next week.

this is the painting that won third place in ayden "collard art show".

this friday we began our weekly plein air outings on friday mornings, it has been a long hot summer and i can't wait to start back. if you would like to paint with us just drop me an e-mail and i will put you on our e-mail listing...all are welcome.

have just returned from 'pigon forge, tenn. my brothers and my self went to a car show there, the largest show i have ever been to. had a great time.

just got a call from "sandy" at the ayden collard art show...i won third place... thats great.

got to cut this short and get to the studio to see what i have missed in the last four days.

have finally got my studio cleaned up again from the storm.

this plein air painting was painted i march of this year it is on the north side of hwy264 about three miles before greenville.

had a good time today talking with pete and brenda from greenville, they were in town to do some serious painting and i distracted them.

john hanley from new bern came by yesterday and we had a nice visit, he was ridding his HOGG...

i put three paintings in the "collard festival" hope everyone that wanted to enter did, what with the storm and all.
