Chester County Studio Tour

May 16 and 17 was our West Chester Pennsylvania Open Studio Tour.

Always arranging and rearranging. It's looking good. Merry Mishaps in the basket!

Painting En Plein Air with Hannah Sutton

We met Hannah Sutton on Instagram after her family gifted her a Scout Box. It was such a pleasure to meet her in real life, visit her Florence Academy of Art studio where she is a program director, and go out on a painting adventure with her. This was one of the highlights of our already wondrous adventure!

Making Paintbrushes out of feathers! Oh my goodness thank you for sharing Shirley. These are my first roughies (tap for video) but they are luscious! The way they hold water and paint is a pleasure. More on this I am sure.
