Painting Mineral King

It’s my main subject, along with Three Rivers, the big trees and citrus. (You knew that, right?) I finished working on this little painting while at the Art Co-op, put it outside in the sunshine, and then later noticed it was pouring, despite the brilliant sun cooking the side of my head through the glass doors. Because it is oil paint, the water beaded up on the surface so I just blew it off. Literally. Got a little light-headed in the process, but saved the painting. If it weren’t for Jim Peters, I couldn’t have worked on this because I forgot my magnifying glasses and he graciously lent me a pair of his! Thanks, Jim!

March First Saturday

The map is too large to put here, so just show up on Saturday at either Anne Lang’s Emporium (open at 9:00? 10:00?) or the Art Co-op (open at 11 a.m.) and get a copy. This month there is a special incentive to visit all the participating places. Each place is worth a certain number of points and there is a wonderful prize!
