Meet me at Booth #211 -- on East Middle Lane in Rockville ... almost across address

Rockville, MD 20850).
160 Master Artists (That's What They Said)
Walk the streets of downtown Rockville as it is
transformed into a brilliant spring outdoor art gallery highlighting
the industry’s best local, regional and national artists. See the
industry’s best in glass, ceramics, jewelry, painting, photography,
sculpture, woodwork and more.
So, here's what I think you'll find in my booth this weekend (I create a mock-up of the layout each show).

| I've included seven of my framed 6"x6"s in the booth display. Browse those online here. |
For Rockville ... IF the rain stays away, I'll have use of three walls inside the tent and one out. Fingers crossed.
I hope to see you soon ... in Great Falls or Rockville. You'd make my day!
Plein Air Class Today
The weather forecast called for chilly weather and rain for day three of my plein air class. All week I've been looking around and racking my brain for a place that would allow some shelter for students from both cold and precipitation ... plus restrooms etc. My solution was to invite the class to my house where some painted interiors, some painted exteriors looking out an open door, one used my studio and one braved the outdoor under the deck view. It proved to be fun for me and fun for them. I would appreciate some sunny Thursdays, though, for the rest of the session.
I did miss out on taking photos of the day.
