Plein Air Painting in a Rainy Climate

August 26, 2020

You would think that record breaking rainfall might put a damper on outdoor painting, but that just hasn't happened! Due, in large part, to “the buddy system,” my painting in Juneau's rainy climate has continued without a break. Making commitments to meet and work with my friends and fellow artists, rain or shine, has kept the dark and wet summer lively and bright; getting outdoors to hike and paint has kept up my spirits up through Juneau's rainiest summer in history.

A collection of my summer work will be shown at the Annie Kaill Gallery in Juneau in December. I have posted a preview in my photo album on this site labeled, “2020, Summer Paintings." My recent paintings can also be seen on my Instagram account.
