Painted this small piece mostly from memory as I have painted it before.

I started this as demo painting for my pastel class I teach

utilizing of underpainting for pastel work.

Fall at New England... with some pastels!

Untitled 6 x 9" location sketch.

Pastels on Wallis paper.

We with my friend Claire Barnwell just returned from our trip to CT,

 where we were painting and enjoying beauty of New England's Fall.

I ended up with only 4 paintings this time, but brought

much reference materials to play with.

We were blessed with wonderful weather,

met some of my old friends, and I was happy to introduce m

my friend to my favorite Pastel-Guru, Richard McKinley.

We had wonderful time, many adventures and

some repeated misfortunes with our car...

What didn't prevent us from painting.

I will be posting more photos with the time, as I get to it.
