I am one of 40 artists who have been juried into this year's Harford Plein Air Festival, which is held by the Maryland Center For The Arts. Each artist will exhibit 5 paintings during the reception that runs from 9/11-9/13 and is held at the Bel Air Armory.
All of the paintings must have been done on-the-spot (En Plein Air), and we had to document our progress by taking GPS, time and date stamped photos.
I have done more than 5 paintings, so I'll be trying to decide which ones to enter.
Here is one of the ones I've finished, and it is titled, Conowingo Nocturne". It's on a 12" x 16" canvas.

This is a new commissioned painting that I just completed. It was a fun challenge. It is the second painting I've done for my customer. She gives them to her children as gifts.

She supplied me with a sketch with a rough layout, and also a bunch of photos showing her son's house in summer (and winter) weather, and his family. She wanted an accurate rendering of the flowers, shrubs, trees, and the wooden front door...opened enough for the family dog to look out at them all. She even wanted me to include an oriole's nest, because they had a nesting pair last year.

In advance, I wanted to set a realistic expectation that it would be next to impossible to render their faces accurately because they were so small (they take up areas on the canvas that are less that an half-inch wide).

The painting is on an 11" x 14" stretched canvas. I'm also including her sketch.

This is a plein air painting I did a few weekends ago, when I participated in The Secret Garden Tour here in Havre de Grace. During the event, artists were invited to set-up their easels and paint some of the beautifully manicured gardens and landscaping, which were also open to walkings tours for the public.

Our paintings will be on exhibit, starting this Friday evening, at the Maritime Museum here in HdG.

This is the painting I created...

I have been participating in a live model painting session with a group of artists who gather in an alcove at Graw Alley in Havre de Grace. Greg Elgin's mom, Ellie, is the group organizer, and he has been pressed into serving as model two times. The first time I was inside. This last time I was outside, in the sun. It was hot, but a good challenge. I tweaked the painting using a reference photo that I took during the session.

Here are two two paintings.
