Durango Photo Wrap Up
Every once in a while I do leave my studio and get to mingle with other artists. Here is a photo review of my trip to the Four Corners area of Colorado to teach a workshop. I am overflowing with visual stimulus and will be creating works from this trip for a long time.
This was the See Differently - Authenticity & Your Art curriculum, with a third day added for outdoor work. I will share more about the event later.
Also, while enjoying the hospitality at the ranch studio of artist Lorraine Trenholm, I talked her into starting a blog. I will link it for you soon!

Thanks to the following wonderful bloggers for noting The Colorist: Donna Zagotta, Laura K. Aiken and Alyson B. Stanfield. With Donna, this blog been featured 3 years running among Blogs to Watch, and it is wonderful to be found in this company. Laura and I share a love for Henri Matisse, and so I am honored by this attention. Alyson is the Art Biz Coach, and her work with artists has helped them make incredible strides in the business and outreach aspects of their studios. I have benefited from several of her workshops, and recommend her to you without reservation. Be prepared to work hard, and reap benefits, at her workshops, including and especially the online ones!

PDX is Short for Portland, Oregon
PDX Workshop, June 15, 16, 2013.
Studio 30 at Cathedral Park Place is Kat Sowa's premier teaching space in the heart of Portland. I am very happy to be teaching my See Differently workshop there, in June of this year. It would be a good idea to sign up early.
Studio 30 is huge! This very well appointed space has natural and corrected lighting, a separate coffee break space, and is adjacent to one restaurant. It is in the St. Johns district, which is bordered by the Columbia River to the northeast, the Willamette River to the northwest, the North Portland railroad cut to the southeast, and the Cathedral Park neighborhood to the southwest.
