I have been terrible about posting. I apologise. In the summer I stay in my studio, working on research and writing. I am writing a book about plein air painting this summer. This painting was one of the recent paint out paintings done in Evinston.

Tennessee Baptist Children's Home Art Show and Sale

 

Here's a shot of the booth showing some plein air paintings exhibited at the Arts Festival on Friday and Saturday.
The little red painting sold. The traffic was scarce both days. The forefront painting was done on location in Royer, France in acrylics. I just love that frame.

May paintings by BJ Wright

I promise that I have been painting. These were done earlier this month. Right now they're in drying racks waiting to be photographed and posted. I hope to post each one separately very soon.

Rain Rain Go Away

"Rain Rain Go Away"
12 x 24 inches
Acrylic on canvas
ready to frame

This is older painting that I did on location a few years ago, before I started posting on line. I was really into thin layers of paint, then sealing them with a varnish. When all the craze came out with the watercolor canvases I moved on to something else.

I was in Fort Pierce with Lori McNamara. It actually started raining off and on. I loved the effect it created in the background, so as it dried I added the thicker layers of foliage over the top.

Thanks for looking!

Sweetwater Creek State Park

I painted at Sweetwater Creek on Saturday. Two pretty different "looks". Both are 11x14" watercolors.

This one is of the ruins -- Sweetwater Manufacturing Company --

This vignette was trying to capture the Mountain Laurel in bloom --

It was pretty tough hauling both my mother's and my painting gear 1.5 miles through the rocky, hilly terrain to reach the ruins but it was a wonderful day.

Congratulations, BJ!

B.J. hasn't mentioned this, but she was the focus of an article in the Chattanooga Times FreePress Monday about Red Clay Park with a photo of her painting on site. (See her earlier post about painting there) Way to go, B.J.! Sandra Babb and Jo Thomas were also mentioned, but weren't on location just yet.

Eternal Flame at Red Clay by BJ Wright

Today was windy at Red Clay State Park. I had to tape my canvas to the easel so it didn't fly away! This painting isn't quite finished yet - needs some tweaking here and there. The painting on my easel is standing in the shade, so it appears darker than the trees. The subject is the eternal flame located on a knoll overlooking the council house. I may return in a few days, painting in hand, to finish.

Red Clay is a wonderful place to visit. It's quiet - a great place to get away from the rest of the world.
