Plein Air Art Show
Linda Epstein
Grew up as a "wash-ashore" on Cape Cod, am now a "come-here" on Chincoteague. And always a painter, through school, college (Swain School of Design), through jobs (waitressing, auctioneering), through life in general - the good, the not so good, always a painter. Horses, landscapes, animals, people if I have to, and now, here on the island, in my Bad Ponies Studio & Gallery on Main Street. For me, this event, and plein air painting in general, is a time to to explore the beauty of the day in paint and light, and the company of good friends.

DO YOU HAVE SOMETHING FOR ME? Linda Epstein $350 Oil on panel - 8" H, 10" W Framed Total: 13" H, 15" W The day friends and I wanted to paint equines, they were all sensibly hunkered down from the hot sun. We found the herd at the Refuge Inn willing to hang around for portraits, as long as the corn lasted! It is not impossible to paint a moving object and this filly, Jasmine I think, was willing to circle around in hopes of a treat, but no time for a background! Questions?
