I am excited to have been selected as one of 20 artists juried into the 2012 Plein Air Painters' U.S. Open, through the Pacific Northwest Art School at Coupeville, WA on Whidbey Island.

Painting dates are August 15-17, culminating in a special "Plein Air Painters Collector's Show, Private BBQ and Wall Sale" on Saturday, August 18th. I have attached that invitation to all blog subscribers, as many of you have become collectors, as well.

It will be a fun time, with fresh, great food and wine, even fresher artwork and all artists will be in attendance! If you plan to attend, please RSVP to the phone number in the invitation. Hope to see you August 18th!
