This event was so much fun!!! It was the final event for the plein air festival in Door County. The event was held in Fish Creek next to the harbor. We were given two hours to complete a painting. The bull horn sounded promptly at 9:00 am. and ended at 11:00. The paintings were placed in frames and put on our easels in the designated area. They were them auctioned off. Great excitement and fun!
I painted this last month during the Door County Plein Air festival. It is a charming little Dutch Farmhouse B&B and gallery, run by Kansas City's own Ed Fenendael, complete with beautiful lavender gardens. It is located in Baileys Harbor, Door County, WI.
This charming little farmhouse is located just off Highway 10 and Kill Creek Road in De Soto, Kansas. It was a beautiful early spring morning.... my favorite time to paint. 
It was nice taking a few days off for the holiday. I actually did get my studio organized... so everything is in order. I have two paintings to finish for an upcoming exhibit, so I probably won't post for a couple of days. This teapot drove me crazy! The Majolica pattern on the teapot was extremely difficult. I just wanted to give the impression of a leaf pattern.
