Painting a Day

These are two paintings I did during a Matt Smith Workshop at the Sedona Arts Center. Matt is a terrific teacher, delivering a coherent set of principles and then following through on those with each individual consultation and on his own demonstrations. Matt has agreed to return another time with a plein air workshop here but the date is yet to be determined.

I have been visiting a nearby ‘junkyard’ and historic ghost town. The beautiful side of entropy. Hmmm… come to think of it the Grand Canyon and Sedona are similar themes of  erosion and oxidation.
