Bobby's Studio Painting and Paint Out in Wachapreague

Hi, I finished this little landscape of Bobby Swain's studio,it was a photo I took at a paint out last year. Such a lovely place and such beautiful people, Bobby,his wife Terry, and his daughter.  Bobby passed away a few years ago but everyone here on the shore remembers him. He was a carver and a dear person. Terry is a dear person too. 

Today I went to a paint out near Wachapreague Va., a small fishing village on the Atlantic Ocean.  The home we visited was amazing,right on the gorgeous marsh with a view of Hog Island, a small barrier island off the coast.Here is the view from Laura's back yard.. beautiful isn't it. Definitely a painting and here are a few of the ESAL members gathered in her sunroom.  We had a wonderful time, I showed them photos of the new puppy coming and the food --we all bring something!..was as usual- very different and wonderful. Ps. A paint out is a gathering of the Eastern Shore Art League with each member bringing a dish of food and lots of talk,coffee and hopefully some painting. Lots of painting today,no I didn't turn out anything but I did enjoy it and  I have lots of photos for reference!!!.. talk to you soon, love,Diana
