There were a couple of guys fishing down the way, I think they said for sea bass.

The northwestern part of the United States is one of the most scenic parts of this country. I recently visited there and spent time on Bainbridge Island, Whidbey Island, and the Seattle coast line. I left behind the scorching Oklahoma August and enjoyed perfect weather there.<br />
<br />
Bainbridge Island is off the coast of Seattle in Puget Sound. Drove my car onboard a ferry and floated over, such a treat. I came upon the salt flats while hiking. There were several paintings to be had, I could turn in any direction and find a knockout. I particularly liked this scene. <br />
<br />
We used a photo of it for class Monday evening. I am so pleased to say that everyone in class produced a knock-out painting.....all different according to their style and all exceptionally good.</div>DALSINGhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04816553674360922314noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4814108443217608261.post-15144392085307420032011-08-08T10:17:00.000-05:002011-08-08T10:17:54.186-05:00ABSTRACT BLUE<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh8lCVBjJiI4jCcqgxtF46mu-n75zcuRPXZMCNIKaXHxc2l6I17kUP0wQSM5Q-YZQetfHpNmjYz7mO6hMHyRMbA8RvGQHs6Jr9XJVWFUMMo8cIgJ09uYAmy3uvsxTH98x-NX-UXsxvSdXuh/s1600/ABSTRACT%252C+FIRSTS+003.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh8lCVBjJiI4jCcqgxtF46mu-n75zcuRPXZMCNIKaXHxc2l6I17kUP0wQSM5Q-YZQetfHpNmjYz7mO6hMHyRMbA8RvGQHs6Jr9XJVWFUMMo8cIgJ09uYAmy3uvsxTH98x-NX-UXsxvSdXuh/s400/ABSTRACT%252C+FIRSTS+003.JPG" width="373" /></a></div>Acrylic/paper board<br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Have been longing to find a cool place away from the dreadfully hot temperatures we are having. Looking through my photos, I found this Cambria sea scene on the California coast. Remembering the time I spent there and painting it helped a bit. I used it last evening for a class painting and saw really good results. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">I have been teaching for about a year and a half. I had heard others instructors say how much they enjoyed teaching but I did not know how much it would enrich my painting life. It affords me the opportunity to meet, work with, and come to know and like people I would never have known otherwise.

There is a stretch of road I drive between my house and the main highway that, regardless of the season, offers a scene that is beautiful to see and enjoy. It is situated in the hills and remains hidden until you round a curve and come up on it. It is a lovely surprise each time. I think the prairie grass that grows in the front and back pasture has been baled to feed the two horses who live across the road. The grasses that grow beside the road and fence are loaded with color. There are a lot of alizarin grasses in the summer and fall, mixed with some purples, greens, and golds. Since we are in the midst of a moderate drouth, the colors will soon fade. Am hoping for rain.<br />
<br />
This is not a plein air piece. The temperatures here are 100+. I parked at the side of the road and took a couple of photos which we used for a class painting last Monday evening.<br />

Summer in Oklahoma is a good time to do studio paintings. 106 degrees yesterday, no rain recently.<br />
<br />
The book is very old and I have owned it for a long time. The bowl was given to me by a friend. It had belonged to her mother who was a still life painter. (Thanks, Cathy. ) The apple, after serving its purpose, went in to the frying pan to be sauteed with butter and cinnamon, a little brown sugar.<br />
<br />
Oh, the apple also went to class and modeled for our class painting for the week. Well-traveled Granny Smith.DALSINGhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04816553674360922314noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4814108443217608261.post-79802011195753322182011-06-18T13:12:00.001-05:002011-07-11T11:27:52.691-05:00FARMERS' MARKET TOMATOES<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj2Mij0hSfbJAktiVjZRtEHN2oB0u4GVZ6LdMZSxXAHbG0PE6x0EUPBiPBLi-f-_I8IVDzLajMDMk7FiuWQZBxHzwhS8bq49AOn4s_hPyFvmp6-jn2TA-Qy1iooRax9SPOT8bADnuZSDAcu/s1600/TOMATOES%252C+FARMERS%2527+MARKET.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="513" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj2Mij0hSfbJAktiVjZRtEHN2oB0u4GVZ6LdMZSxXAHbG0PE6x0EUPBiPBLi-f-_I8IVDzLajMDMk7FiuWQZBxHzwhS8bq49AOn4s_hPyFvmp6-jn2TA-Qy1iooRax9SPOT8bADnuZSDAcu/s640/TOMATOES%252C+FARMERS%2527+MARKET.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>8x10<br />

Summer tomatoes are delicious. They are grown locally and I can get them just picked at the farmers' market. I just don't buy them off season as they tend to have the flavor of styrofoam. They are fun to paint. I took them to class Monday for our weekly painting project.</div>DALSINGhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04816553674360922314noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4814108443217608261.post-32674951882938743982011-05-31T22:55:00.000-05:002011-05-31T22:55:05.950-05:00TALL GRASS PRAIRIE IN MAY<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><div align="left" class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg01QxQZJhTBAU0xAkZHQDCWaSKSmwQ3pIgkUsJNIo00ax5K-pm_iN6qDeuHChQwckz62waTzMUH2ARoLvXSmwHRc6y4KtU2_KILCVzN5eNHennmGHq2b7kmgdb3W3bViMMe8etjhEeFYvR/s1600/GREAT+SALT+PLAINS+IN+MAY.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="303" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg01QxQZJhTBAU0xAkZHQDCWaSKSmwQ3pIgkUsJNIo00ax5K-pm_iN6qDeuHChQwckz62waTzMUH2ARoLvXSmwHRc6y4KtU2_KILCVzN5eNHennmGHq2b7kmgdb3W3bViMMe8etjhEeFYvR/s400/GREAT+SALT+PLAINS+IN+MAY.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>8X10<br />

I had the opportunity to visit Oklahoma's Tall Grass Prairie Preserve recently with an artist friend for a day of plein aire painting. There were some wildflowers blooming although it is still a bit early in the year. We chose this scene for the distant view and the few wild flowers. We enjoyed this cool and windy day, had our sack lunch, and stayed on the lookout for bison. None were to be seen, guess they were beyond a hill somewhere. We did, however, see the long horns.....and they saw us, stopping their chewing to observe our activities.<br />
<br />
We are fortunate to have the preserve in Oklahoma and to have it near enough for a day trip. It is a pleasure to visit and see the changes with each season.<br />

During April, Tulsa's Gilcrease Museum staged its annual Rendezvous art event. Curt Walters was one of the featured artists this year. He is probably best known for his Grand Canyon paintings which are magnificent. While in Tulsa for this event, he conducted a master's class workshop for a limited number of participants. Lucky me, I was one of those.<br />
It was a great experience. This little painting is one I did on the beautiful grounds of the Gilcrease museum during the workshop.<br />

The Tulsa Artist Coalition has a fund raiser each year on May 5. The exhibit opens at 5:55 pm and each painting sells for $55.<br />
<br />
This is my entry/donaton for this year. I believe this is at least my fourth year to participate. It is great to see the rows of paintings, all 5x5, on the walls and note how rapidly they sell.<br />
<br />
If you live in Tulsa or close enough to drive in, you must not miss this event...,,come see the art, meet the artists, and enjoy a glass of wine.</div>DALSINGhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04816553674360922314noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4814108443217608261.post-27428985506315004242011-04-18T12:48:00.000-05:002011-04-18T12:48:39.588-05:00PATH TO WOODS, HAYWARD HILL<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj86UTjCTbSLiZ9CulZX5bhz9Ld82Yd5ZXcgXJe34BQb8I9IbWLtI-5_JmjWKWlWUysdjdt57sA4qEXJlBKtTp1JjDFj6LCYVJrEPWzMmsel5aH234H5oycNwC6tKb-DXi8jqOdSG00D5D_/s1600/HAYWARD+HILL+%252C+PATH+TO+WOODS%252C+NEW+PNTG+003.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; cssfloat: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="298" r6="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj86UTjCTbSLiZ9CulZX5bhz9Ld82Yd5ZXcgXJe34BQb8I9IbWLtI-5_JmjWKWlWUysdjdt57sA4qEXJlBKtTp1JjDFj6LCYVJrEPWzMmsel5aH234H5oycNwC6tKb-DXi8jqOdSG00D5D_/s400/HAYWARD+HILL+%252C+PATH+TO+WOODS%252C+NEW+PNTG+003.JPG" width="400" /></a></div>11x14<br />

I have painted this area many times. It is about three miles from my home and along a road I travel several days each week. There are many views along this hilly road that offers beautiful scenes that seem to change dramatically with each season or even time of day.<br />
How fortunate I am to have this to enjoy. <br />

This typical northern Oklahoma scene is near the Tall Grass Prairie Preserve.<br />
<br />
This will be a painting I will most likely use for class. It offers lessons in perspective, value, and shapes.<br />
<br />
It is getting to be prime plein aire time in Oklahoma. It is getting warmer, greener, windier, and buggier ( is that in the dictionary?) </div>DALSINGhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04816553674360922314noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4814108443217608261.post-52812332579902947622011-03-15T18:18:00.000-05:002011-03-15T18:18:46.448-05:00LOVE THOSE KNIFE PAINTERS!!<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhnQgpRk0NUqKAhj9zj3e-uCEdAOVfNJjxGdSbN17Asywn88F1axSINfrG9GNB4D1V1TWyTgCoWTJE7hVIxyaFNgzVV-WwE1iBO7_o9cCUZHnKgmsBe3ZQKBD9kQ9a-RgUcb-dIFTnIsOTU/s1600/Class+photos%252C+mar+14+009.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; cssfloat: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" q6="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhnQgpRk0NUqKAhj9zj3e-uCEdAOVfNJjxGdSbN17Asywn88F1axSINfrG9GNB4D1V1TWyTgCoWTJE7hVIxyaFNgzVV-WwE1iBO7_o9cCUZHnKgmsBe3ZQKBD9kQ9a-RgUcb-dIFTnIsOTU/s320/Class+photos%252C+mar+14+009.JPG" width="320" /></a><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEio6U6KGQKwm9CPCbCvvKUd-FiGsau83Sn39bYiNPD5cwWcw6UM9PJ_27lGrEFtRIt-zZT0raTvHWOBVM3-RFMkvX-6MOy4rstoy74OW4ybzxxtKH0vUZiJO3tcuaH-TqhY5DoArv06OcZf/s1600/Class+photos%252C+mar+14+001.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="260" q6="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEio6U6KGQKwm9CPCbCvvKUd-FiGsau83Sn39bYiNPD5cwWcw6UM9PJ_27lGrEFtRIt-zZT0raTvHWOBVM3-RFMkvX-6MOy4rstoy74OW4ybzxxtKH0vUZiJO3tcuaH-TqhY5DoArv06OcZf/s320/Class+photos%252C+mar+14+001.JPG" width="320" /></a></div><br />

Yesterday was perhaps our first perfect spring day this year. The temperature was in the low 70's and the winds were mild and pleasant.<br />
So, a great time to be out painting.<br />
I met a friend at the Keystone Woods and we spent the day painting, eating, and visiting.<br />
<br />
The woods are always paintable and now they are in flux, shedding winter and adding summer. This scene is one I particularly liked. The path goes up the hill then round behind the big cedar becoming a wider path, now a lane that leads you through<br />
almost a canopy of cedars with a <br />
glimpse of sky at the end......another <br />
painting for another day.<br />
