Cabernet

This has been a busy week so I've only done a small palette knife painting this week.  I am going to be at an art show on Thursday and I've been trying to get a bunch of silk paintings framed.  If you are in So Cal and would like to spend a relaxing day watching about 20 artists painting and displaying their art in a beautiful park, come on by.  The art show is a part of the annual Tustin Garden Tour.  If you are interested in coming to the art show, it is free.  If you want to attend the garden tour, the cost is $30.00 and you can buy tickets that day.  There are 3 gardens on the tour and they are all really beautiful.  One of the gardens is across the street from the park where the art show is being held and you can buy tickets there.  The park is on Lower Lake Drive, North Tustin, CA so just go maps.google.com and input that and it will show you the spot.  It doesn't work in mapquest for me.  The event will be held from 10:00 - 3:00.

    You know, Nancy, I just don't care for the taste of grapes, but for some reason, grape paintings are some of my favorites. I think this is gorgeous and I am awed by your work with a palette knife. (I tried it recently and gave it up almost immediately and went to the brush!)

    Thanks Sherry. I'm not that fond of grapes either but I DO like wine. I think that's a much better use of grapes and I really like grape paintings too. There's something very soothing about them.

    Love the light and shadows on your painting. Never have tried to do a palette knife painting...only time I've used a palette knife is for my mtn's in my landscapes.
    Great job and good luck at your up coming event.

    Thanks Sherry. You should try the palette knife again. It's really very addicting once you get used to it.

    Hi Nancy, great painting!! There is something very pleasant about grapes. I've never attempted to use a palette knife, you've done a lovely job. I'm jealous you got to see the show at Randy Higbee's in person! Would love to see all that fabulous art:)

    Thank you Carrie. Yes, I feel very lucky to live only 20 minutes from Randy's gallery. He's such a nice guy and his frames are great.
