I was recently honored to be juried
in the
Plein Air Richmond Festival which was held June 9 through June
16th. A total of 45 of the country's top plein air artists traveled to
Richmond, Virginia to participate in this years event. The festival was
organized by the
Brazier Gallery - Loryn Brazier and her staff did an
absolutely flawless job in orchestrating the weeklong event. The event also got some great
coverage of the event on the local news station
WTVR. Friday
night's Collector's Preview and Sale was a "packed house" at the
Brazier Gallery. Later that evening, a private gala reception and dinner
was held at a contemporary gallery space across the street - one the best
receptions I have ever attended. I was fortunate to have my painting
"Corner in Church Hill" selected for an Honorable Mention award by
Stephen Doherty of
Plein Air Magazine.

Although not perfect weather (hot, humid and a
few major downpours), Plein Air Richmond was a wonderful opportunity to paint
the many wonderful places that make Richmond one of this country's most
charming and unique cities.
