But wait! Let's not be too hasty in bidding farewell to summer. Over the past few months, I've been having a fantastic time teaching plein-air workshops all across California, from north to south, and I'm so grateful to all the many students who joined me. Along the way, I created quite a few new plein-air pastel paintings so please click here if you'd like to continue enjoying the season of fun by looking at the newest pieces in the plein-air gems collection, including Late Blossoms, Summer Sycamore, and Nature Preserve. While you're there, please take a spin around my website to see what's new!
