I finished my first painting residency today, the Yukon Fresh Artist in Residence Exchange. It was 10 days of painting and workshops in variety of subjects.
I completed 18 paintings, and liked most of them. I did one workshop, teaching introductory watercolours to 7 students. All told, it was a great 10 days, although it did have a rocky start. I was going to stay in my camper, but it developed some mechanical issues on the way back from Fox Lake and I can’t get in into the shop until next week. My daughter and son-in-law offered their travel trailer for the residency, saving me from 10 days in a tent. I’d have to buy one, at that, since my little pup tent isn’t really a choice.
So here are some of the paintings I did. Most were local southern lakes scenes, including a few from up at the Tagish fire tower where the view is incredible.
