This was demo done during a workshop and was sitting in the studio waiting for the finishing touches that I am never able to get to during a workshop.

Plein Air Painter - Judging an Art Show

American Contemporary plein air painter.

A month ago, I did the jurying for Havre de Grace for the 3rd year in a row, I believe.
The quality of the work was very good and they should have an excellent show.

Last night I was one of the judges for a juried show in Niagara Falls at Mt. Carmel Centre called 'Art in the Mist'.
My fellow judges were Tom Goldspink from TAG Gallery and Dr.Santina Malaguti from Amano Libera Gallery, both in St. Catharine's, Ont.



After almost 2 hrs, we had picked out 4 first, and a Best of Show, totally in agreement.
The three of us plan to be in touch in the near future.
It was a positive first experience judging here in the Niagara area.

The show continues through this weekend.
Congratulations to the winning artists !
