PASTEL WORKSHOP

EULOGY, TEXAS

PASTEL ARTIST, DINA GREGORY

http://www.dinagregory.com/

Phil, my husband and I took a

weekend painting workshop at

Dina Gregory's log house outside

of Glen Rose, Texas

It was a great two days, cool

weather, overcast and a little

rainy. Not much sunshine to

have shadows but we turned out

some nice soft moody paintings.

This was Phil's first painting

workshop. It was a plein air

pastel workshop but on the first

day we painted in oils.

Phil was worried he would be the

only man there. Well, there were

two other gentlemen.

We enjoyed our weekend away painting

outdoors in a rural setting.

Dina is a lovely lady and her husband Brian

would give us mini concerts on his

grand piano.

Since it was windy and rainy we painted under

the car port and on the porch that wrapped

around the log home.
