"Summer Hydrangea Flowers" 8"x8" Gouache by Margaret Farrell Bruno
I had a really fun time painting this plein air with gouache. I usually don't paint with this medium when painting plein air. I think I am finally catching on a bit. Looking forward to painting more outside with this medium and stretching my boundaries.

"Summer Memories- 11"x14" watercolor on paper by Sally Dean
SO many memories it was hard to pick.
"Feeding Time" gouache 7 x 9 by Jody Regan. We spend time each summer on Monhegan Island, Maine.  I love the sound of the gulls, and their movement, especially when they think one of them has found something delectable. This summer, one of the gulls joined me on our deck to watch me paint, and to listen to my music.

“First Place”

There are so many things to love about the Marshfield Fair and Horticulture Hall is one of my favorites. On a recent rainy day, a friend and I sat inside and painted this display of sunflowers. Traffic was minimal and we had the place pretty much to ourselves. Our Fair is awesome!
