Capturing Harford County, One Stroke at a Time

Dear friends,

August has been a month of golden light, open fields, and creative momentum. I have the joy of participating in the Paint Harford County Plein Air event, where I spent time painting on a beautiful farm—surrounded by rolling hills, curious animals, and the ever-changing dance of summer skies.

There’s something deeply grounding about painting outdoors. Each brushstroke becomes a response to the wind, the warmth, and the fleeting shadows. I’ve been documenting this experience and will soon share a short video that captures the rhythm of my process—stay tuned!

The exhibit dates is as follows:

Sept 12: Gallery Reception and Awards Ceremony at the Armory, 6:30-9pm, Free!
Sept 13: Quick Draw for adults and Sales at the Armory, 9am -3pm
Sept 14: Quick Draw for youth and Sales at the Armory, 10am -3pm

🖼️ New Works Coming Soon

Several pieces from this event will be available for viewing and purchase. If you’re interested in seeing them first, reply to this email or visit www.artsdtryon.com for updates.

🎥 Behind the Easel

I’m currently editing a time-lapse video from my farm session—watch for it in next month’s newsletter and on social media. It’s a glimpse into the quiet magic of Plein Air painting.

📚 Fall Workshops

I’ll be announcing new adult classes and workshops soon, focused on Plein Air techniques and expressive oil and pastel work. If you’d like early access to registration, let me know!

Thank you for being part of this journey. Your support, encouragement, and shared love of art keep me inspired.

With gratitude and color,
