I had a beautiful weekend at the plein air competition in Marblehead.  Met a lot of talented artists and nice people.  Love Lake Erie.  Decided to get my metal detector out for a while on the beach to search for treasure.  Found about 83 cents.  It wasn’t enough to buy a coffee.

I had a slow start with painting.  There is so much to paint there it is quite overwhelming.  The gingerbread houses are so beautiful, but not so easy to paint.  It took while for my mind to settle in.  By the 3rd painting I was getting comfortable and tired.  I stopped at number 3.  I didn’t win anything at the competition, but sold 2 paintings which is always a plus.
