Let's Visit in Selma, Ala. Daily Photo: Five O'Clock Shadow

check out this blog by Janet Gresham:
Selma, Ala. Daily Photo: Five O'Clock Shadow: Looking east in late afternoon, the Edmund Pettus Bridge turns orange in the sinking sunlight, forming deep shadows upon the Alabama River...

I'll be painting on location this weekend in Selma and surrounding areas - my first visit there. Some of the Alabama Plein Air Painters will sell what we've painted on Saturday at the Art Guild from 4 to 7. Look for the painters Friday afternoon and Saturday afternoon around Selma and come visit at the Art Guild in downtown Sema Alabama.

magnolias, hanging moss, azaleas, history, home tour - come see!

Schedule a Workshop for your group

Painting Your Vision Workshop No matter what level is current in your oil painting, its time to step up to the next level. This workshop is designed to add interest in texture and design, emphasize brushwork and edges, and explore new additions to paint techniques. We do this by using traditional methods of direct or alla prima painting, which simply means all we can accomplish in a session using rich paint to make sophisticated edges. We will explore different surfaces that affect the look of an oil painting. And we will use a simple color mixing exercise to give confidence in value and mixing the color you need. Bring your references or use my photos. Demonstrations will give suggestions to add something new to your oil paintings and painting time to bring it all together.
