Rainy week in Steamboat and I got lost in the hinterlands looking for one of the painting sites. And last Monday, I made the choice strolling past a flat screen in the gondola ski lodge which had the Broncos on right at the beginning of fourth qtr. Yeah, I sat down and watched the game!
Anyway, here are the four paintings I completed.

The Augusta Plein Air in Augusta Missouri is 8 days of painting and 2 days of final judging. The longest event I participate in and by far the most artists! Over 100 and they come from 15 different states. The large painting of the cliff scored 3 awards. Best Theme painting of “ light and shadow”, best watercolor painting, and best of show. I hope to teach a workshop there next year.
