I was scheduled to demo last Thursday night and due to torrential rain, the meeting was rescheduled for Thursday (tomorrow) night, September 15 at 7:30pm. So, I'll be doing a short, one-hour demo at the Vienna Arts Center at 115 Pleasant Street NW, Vienna, Virginia. Still life is the subject. Maybe I'll see you there? It's free and open to the public.

We will be in Norfolk Oct. 7th, 8th, 9th, and 10th. Sorry we will miss seeing you.
I'm sorry to miss seeing you, too. Since I'm not familiar with the area, I need a guide to some of its most paint-worthy spots.
I hope school's going well for you, Spencer and Sandor.
