Plein Air Augusta, Missouri

Augusta Plein Air

One hundred and three plein air artist descended on Augusta Missouri

for about ten days recently.  I was fortunate to attend the last three

days.  Artist from all over the country as well as Canada were

present, painting every aspect of Augusta, a sleepy little town

on the Missouri River and the Katy Trail.  It is in the heart of

Missouri wine country.  No fast food or shops, just antiques, Bed

and Breakfast Inns, and Wineries.  Each day was at a different

location, many of which were wineries.  It was fascinating and

my first plein air event.  I would like to post more pictures, but

this blog will not let me do so tonight.  I finally figured out
to edit the blog to get more photos.  It's amazing how my
paintings have such realistic gnats, leaves, and grass in them.
