I've been out of pocket for several days. I went with four other artists to the Hill Country outside of Austin, TX to The Bunkhouse for marathon days of painting (and eating!) It is amazing how much you can get done with no outside influences......no television, no cell phones, no internet. I started this 30 x 40 painting and hope to have it finished in a few weeks.
The Bunkhouse, owned by rancher/artist Dena Wenmohs, is a wonderful artistic environment. The landscape is inspiring and the studio spaces are bright and artist friendly.
Here is the group painting in the studio which is attached to the 1890's era ranch house.
