The annual wine fundraiser (formerly Wine Fest) is now held downtown at the Art Center, giving attendees a chance to tour the building and still dance, drink and bid at the live auction under a tent at back of the Center. I was asked to demo my process in the 3rd floor studio space during the event. Strategic positioning next to the cheese table was a plus.
Additionally, I offered to donate the completed painting for the live auction. Here, step by step, is the painting in progress:
