"A painting is the revelation of a journey." - Pablo Picasso

I need to catch up, a lot has happened and it seems time to bring this particular journey to a close. After a delightful couple of days with Mark and Lori at their tremendous lake place in Brown County, I participated in a Paint Out in Greenfield, IN with IPAPA, where I met some terrific Indiana artists: Mary Ann Davis, Jeff Klinker, Donna Shortt, Wyatt LeGrand, among others. 

I was able to get two decent paintings completed: “Brandywine Creek, Greenfield, IN” 16x20” and “Old Barn, Greenfield, IN” 11x14”. Mark and Lori purchased two of the California paintings from the road - "Point (Los) Lobos" and "Big Sur" - and the artworks look terrific hanging in their main room at the lake house. 

Diann and I bid adieu to Mark and Lori (Mark asked repeatedly for my mom’s cell number, I steadfastly refused, don’t trust him, never did :)

We are back in Chicago by Sunday evening, July 1st, thereby concluding the Journey of eight glorious weeks; however, not quite concluded, ha, as I will travel to Lake Wawasee in Indiana the next weekend, July 6-8, to participate with Indiana Plein Air Painters and the Wawasee Paint Out.  


“It is not necessary that you leave the house. Remain at your table and listen. Do not even listen, only wait. Do not even wait, be wholly still and alone. The world will present itself to you for it’s unmasking, it can do no other, in ecstasy it will writhe at your feet.” – Kafka
