Post #200 -- a milestone


Today marks my 200th blog entry. If Facebook hadn't come along there would have been many more, but while I am still entering things here other artists that I have followed in their blogs no longer keep them going. I chose to put up some of the latest work I've done in the drawing "class", parenthesis, because there isn't a teacher in this class. Just a watercolor and a charcoal drawing of a live model posing for the Skokie Art Guild drawing group. Another picture is the three entries I have in one of the Plein Air Painters of Chicago shows. Finally there is a little 8 x 10" oil of a monument (actually most likely a headstone in a cemetary) set back in the woods from the rest of the cemetery. I was out painting last fall with two old art school friends in a churchyard while the sun was getting low in a late afternoon.
