The show at the Terra Nova Gallery was a lot of work but, I'm so glad I did it. Many people showed up for the opening and it was fun. My photos of the paintings are still at the photographers. I'll post them when I can.
The first week of August Marie and I took a painting workshop from Linda Curly Christensen in Wallsburg. Each day we went to a different location to paint. The workshop was five days, about twelve hours a day.
The first day we painted on Linda's farm. Our lunches were brought to us and dinners were back at the studio and were very yummy and healthy.

The second day we painted in town at the Ford's fence with the beautiful hollyhocks.
This is Russell Rick's painting. He had quite a few nice paintings that week and kept us entertained.
Day three took us up into the high country to paint wildflowers. As part of the retreat, we took a trail ride on horseback. This was a highlight.
I had to drive my Toyota through this river three times on the way up and down. The first crossing was rough with big rocks. One of the cars got high centered. The drive up was one of my favorite parts.

WALLSBURG, UTAH
After spending twelve hours a day, for five days, painting, listening to art lectures and critiques, eating good food and meeting new friends, Marie and I thought we WERE in heaven!

After reading about your experience, I felt a need for a Bit of Heaven today. I enjoyed the scenic tour of Wallsburg's main road plus all the side roads.
A cute white house surrounded by a white fence was for sale. I picked up a paper and it read, "30 ACRES Of PARADISE". $1,790,000
Guess I'll wait for my "Bit of Heaven".
