Germanton Plein Air Paint Out

Capturing the essence of beauty in fine art through oil painting

Germanton Plein Air Paint Out

April 2006

During the first week of April I was near Winston-Salem

for the annual "Painting North Carolina From the Mountains to the Sea"

Show and Paint Out. I along with 20 other artists from around the country

participated.

Award winning painter Bret Weaver has

the most used Open M box I have ever seen.

Luke Buck from Indiana and myself. He and I have

some deep roots. I was six years old when I began

taking art lessons at Luke and his dad's studio. The

Buck family worked really hard to promote Art in the

community which helped me to have a great

foundation at an early age.

Congratulations to Dan who won

the Artist Choice Award this year
