Ernest Gruening Cabin Residency

I spent the first two weeks of August as the Artist in Residence at the Ernest Gruening Cabin north of Juneau.  My goal was to start doing larger oil paintings and I did begin 2 larger pieces one of which you can see on my other blog.  I was a very inspiring and productive two weeks.  I also painted or started several some smaller oils  and these little watercolors in an  5x7 accordion book.
