Winter workshop
I had a good time at the studios of Key West https://tskw.org/ sponsored by the Key West watercolor society--their annual winter workshop. Richard Stevens Richard Stevens , from Arkansas gave a fun program for four days. He called it "Fast and Loose." And he did a great job getting us all to practice loosening up. Two of the paintings I started there are showing in the 31st Skylands show this spring at the Sussex County Arts and Heritage gallery. The first is a local scene, A horse barn in Stillwater. The second is a Kew West street scene--St John's Episcopal Church on Duval Street. One of the Richard's teaching tools was to do a triptych, representing differing views of one scene. Back in Jersey I decided to do a triptych of one of my favorite restaurants. I tried to be loose, but not too fast.
