Happy 4th of July! We're sweltering in 102+ degrees so I'm posting a plein air painting I recently did of a babbling brook. I can still hear the water running - and wish I were physically in it.
Your painting skills have grown impressively, Vic! I really enjoy seeing your work. I see you as an accomplished impressionist--and I love your abstracts. I wish we were close enough to paint together on occasion...Maybe someday!

After a lifetime of doing everything but art, I have now put my love of painting as a first priority. I wanted to major in art in college, but was quickly talked out of it by my father who said I'd never make a living with an art degree. So, scared that I might starve, I majored in business but squeezed in as many art electives as possible. Upon graduation I immediately went to work and never stopped. Never painted either!!
I now devote several days per week to pure painting time and enjoy the company of many local painters. Current art memberships include: Austin Plein Air, Waterloo Watercolor Group and Austin Pastel Society.
Juried Exhibitions include:
AUSTIN PASTEL SOCIETY Minature Show (2009) Won First in Show, Juror: Susan Kemner Reed
