Pheasant Branch Trail Outing
The weather forecast for our second outing last week was uncertain but we ended up having a nice, although partly cloudy, morning. A lot of birders were out and about. I'm still trying to salvage a painting from that outing so I'm posting another painting from a few days earlier painted at Nine Springs park. These spring days really lift the spirits.

Dane Co. Area Plein Air Workshop
I also noticed that one of our group, Jan Norstetter, is doing a workshop for painting en plein air with oils on June 6th at Whispering Woodlands. I have taken several classes there and really enjoyed the experience. I know one of my friends is signed up for this one. As we know Jan is a terrific and award winning plein air painter! www.whispering-woodlands.com/

Kyle Martin New Show and Workshops
I am a big fan of Kyle's paintings and workshops. This season he is offering 2 plein air workshops in the Baraboo/Reedsburg area and I signed up for the one in September. Regardless of what style one paints in I think alot can be learned form Kyle's approach and I have found him to be an excellent teacher. He also gives a great workshop on values that I took last year. Check out his blog for details. kyle-martin.blogspot.com
