While my passion is plein air, in this indoor demo I'll be creating an acrylic landscape painting from photos, sketches, memory and imagination. This will be a fun, interactive session -- all questions welcome! </div><div><br /></div><div>My demo is hosted by the <a href="https://www.pal-art.com/" target="_blank">Pleasanton Art League</a> in conjunction with their current show in the <a href="https://www.firehousearts.org/gallery/current-exhibit/" target="_blank">Firehouse Arts Center's Harrington Gallery.</a> I'm proud that my painting "Autumn Glow, Lake Del Valle" is part of the mix. This is a beautiful gallery, well worth a visit if you're in the San Francisco Bay Area this month.
