Great time at Oregon's WSO Conference
October 7, 2016 | WSO Watercolor Society of Oregon
My time in Oregon was a memorable experience! I had the responsibility to select 80 painters for the show, designate and comment the winners, critique publicly 40 paintings, and hold a workshop to 25 experienced painters. Artists, staff and volunteers made it easy, friendly and fun! Plus all my demos were collected on the spot. I also enjoyed the support of Daniel Smith who supplied me with a number of wonderful pigments. Savoir Faire wasn’t lesser kind and provided me a stock of Fabriano Artistico paper. Both companies also gifted my workshop students with the finest samples of paint and cotton paper. Thank you all! Everybody happy! Please see why students say: wow!

Door County Festival
July 30, 2016
Spent an hectic week in Eastern Wisconsin as a featured artist in the Door County Plein Air Festival. I was the only one invited from Europe among 40 of the top plein air artists in the USA. We painted along the shores of Sister Bay, Fisch Creek, Sturgeon Bay and some historical inland site. The exhibition and quick paint auction were amazingly crowded by enthustiastic collectors.
