Here are a few of the paintings shown at the Continental Divide Land Trust Wild About Colorado Plein Air art Festival 

It was a challenge to paint with the weather constantly changing from partly cloudy to rainy. Also got some fishing time in but didn't catch anything. Maybe next time. Many thanks to Tim Diebler for the award and all who put on this amazing event. Also big thanks to Marianna and Bill Duford their awesome hospitality. The best in the land.

First paintings with long handled brushes. Pretty cool. Arms are sore. Straight arm painting with long handle brushes will tone the muscles. lol

I started this one a long time ago and it was just taking up space in the studio so for grins and giggles I tried to revamp it. It might sit in the studio for a few more years.
