Fredericksburg Texas in Plein Aire


Back in the fall I had the pleasure and privilege of painting with one of my best new friends, Virginia Vaughan or V....Vaughan as she prefers. V.... is a professional artist, teacher and mentor. Mostly she is a really good artist, who keeps a schedule like the Queen of England. Between teaching, painting and keeping her family on track she is also a publisher. This little painting I did is one of about 7 or 8 I painted over a 3 day period. Lots of fun, and Virginia whipped us into shape like a drill Sargent. We were up at 5:00 to drive our location to paint the sunrise, and we stayed out there to paint the moon as it was coming up that evening. Of course I had a cooler of Budweiser. No sunset is left unappreciated, especially in Texas, especially by me!

  1. Beautiful painting! I love the sky. I like hearing the story about where it was painted. Makes it even more special!
