Babcock Ranch, Montana

I spent a week at the Montana ranch of friends, Dixie and Vose Babcock this past September. What a awesome experience! Dixie was the perfect painting hostess, driving her Polaris to all corners of the ranch finding the best views to paint, and packing picnics and wine to be shared between paintings. Here are a few of paintings done that week:

Florida Land Trust Paintout "The Bartrum Trail"

Painting the Region's "Bartrum Trail" Paintout October 2009 benefiting North Florida Land Trust provided a great variety of painting opportunities throughout the small communities located along the St. John's River. Alpine Groves Historical Park, located in Switzerland, Florida (about 30 miles South of Jacksonville) was the center of activity with an old cracker house as the wetroom and gallery.

Here are some of the paintings I completed over a period of three days in October.
