One of the pieces I submitted. "Brooker Creek Preserve Open View"
Inside the Bird Watcher's Hut, I sat on the very comfortable tractor stool and looked out the open window to the open field which I painted.
The Paint & Photo - 2014 Event was held at Brooker Creek Preserve (in Tarpon Springs FL) for the first time this year. There were 33 artists and 9 photographers. What an excellent place to have this three day event!! It has miles of trails going through Florida wetlands and dry Pine flatwoods which have been preserved so well through the years that it is very much like it was when the first settlers came to Florida. I found the ideal place to set up and paint for three days - the Bird Watchers Hut! There was the needed shade, a cool breeze coming through the open windows, AND No Bugs came in the hut! I had the "Penthouse" of locations!! The event ended with a very nice reception and all the work will hang for a week.
