What a week! My friend, Elaine, and I enjoyed three of those days with Kathy Anderson!  Her "Plein Air in the Garden" workshop was a whole lot of fun and very valuable!  The biggest blessing was having bad weather the first day, lots of fog and drizzle, so we stayed inside - and got to watch Kathy for a full day create an amazing painting.  She explains every step and decision taken, and loves answering questions.  It was an incredible opportunity to learn from someone so happy to share all she can! We had a blast!  On day two, we did a "practice studio painting" of peonies. Mine can be viewed on Facebook (Diane Reeves) or Instagram (dianereevesart). The last day, we painted outdoors! My very first plein air painting (posted here) was of day lilies painted on location in Tilda's vast and wonderful garden in Chatham!  Thank you to Creative Arts Center for arranging to have Kathy Anderson offer her workshop last week, to Tilda for her gracious welcome and willingness to let us wander and paint, and of course to Kathy, for being so fun and generous in her teaching!
