Robert Burridge Studio Mentor Workshop

I attended Robert Burridge Studio Mentor Workshop in Arroyo Grande, CA, at his own studio in September 2014. It was like one of my dreams came true!

He is such a great mentor, not only talented in art but to teach, to communicate, to inspire and to encourage students. Some students were repeater attracted to his caring and charming personality as well as his skills. In the class, 7 of us, in the 40s to 60s, all acted like small kids who love to paint!  Full of laughter and scream, enthusiasm, energy everyday.

My goal was to improve color scheme, and here I was trying out new sets of colors by his wonderful method!

Now showing at Upstream People Gallery

My latest 3 artworks are on exhibit in 16th Annual All Media Juried Online International Art Exhibition by Upstream People Gallery.

 

Dine under the wisteria arbor

My another dream dining setting is under the wisteria arbor. I experienced it and loved it in Provence.

All time favorite bistro

I never get tired of painting this bistro. That's one of my power spots. I am always happy whenever I visit there, to dine with anyone, any time. 

Magic Hour at Course Saleya, Nice

I fell in love with the contrast of burning orange building against Phthalo blue sky back in the late 90's. Later I learned that it was Henri Matisse's house...I should've walked during the day time. I enjoyed the view as I dined at the amazing pizzeria. They served simple but amazing dish and amazing local wine.
