I recently had a great opportunity to go to a plein air workshop that was sponsored by the Taos Art School. Paul Murray PSA was the instructor for this plein air pastel workshop. This part of the country is absolutely beautiful and so different from the Midwest of the United States. Here are some of the sites that I painted. Click on a picture to make it larger.

Taos is an amazing art community. I spent a whole day leisurely going through galleries. I saw an annual art show at the convention center. I saw a “Quick Draw” where a group of artists create art in a variety of media and the works are sold at auction afterward.Workshops are so much fun. I see new parts of the country and I meet other artists who are passionate about art. Here are some pictures of the group.

Here are some pictures of our first day at St. Francis church. Paul is giving me some pointers and he demonstrated.

At the end of the week, Paul critiqued our work. The last picture is of Paul and his paintings of the week.

To see some of the paintings I did in this workshop, go to my plein air gallery. To see Paul Murray’s work, go to www.murrayfineart.com.
