KAYE FRANKLIN OIL PAINTING WORKSHOP
July 20,21,22, 2011
Lake Granbury Art Association
http://www.granburyart.org/

I thoroughly enjoyed a three day workshop with  master artist and teacher,
Kaye Franklin http://www.kfranklinstudio.com/Artist.htm
from Grahm, Texas.  She included florals and landscapes in oil and also
a floral pastel in her daily demos.  All were very informative. She gave individual
instruction as well. I also got to stay at my good friend's home who is an excellent
oil painter, Joyce Thomas http://thomasjoyce.blogspot.com/  . 
We enjoyed visiting and taking the workshop together.
Other artist friends were there, Sheri Jones http://www.sheriart.blogspot.com/ ,
 Beth Pritchard, and Diana Littlejohn and new
artists friends were made.  A great three days of painting.  Hope you enjoyed
viewing the paintings above that I completed in the workshop.
These paintings and others are on my gallery page on
Daily Paintworks with details and pricing.

A Paint Out in Acton, Texas

The "Doug Club"  Paint out group met
in Acton, Texas close to Granbury at one of the group's property full
of interesting farm equipment and unique painting
subjects and a pond with a boat.  The May day was gorgeous, sunny with a
little breeze.  We all picked our spots and set up and got started painting
I was fortunate to have my husband, Phil, join me as he usually goes
to play golf on Saturdays. It was a fun day painting, meeting a
group of outdoor painters from Dallas, seeing artist friends and enjoying the beautiful
scenery and weather.



"The Red Tractor"
6" x 6" Acrylic on Canvas




Phil having a go at painting the swing!



Here's Doug, our leader.  He is so good to notify
the artists about paint outs at interesting locations.



The Red Tractor was a favorite subject!



A lazy summer day!

Hope you had a good weekend and a Happy Mother's Day!
Come back again soon.
