Saunders Fine Arts POTD - Yellow Primrose, Texas

Who can resist spring wildflowers?

Not us, that's for sure.

This stemless common yellow primrose only opens in the evening, because it knows how to set itself apart from all the other flowers, by making a dramatic entrance.

Join me May 20th - 22nd in Saint Louis, Missouri to explore the essential techniques for painting from direct observation and photography. Learn to paint any subject, from the most simple to complex, with one approach. I will demonstrate the process of simplifying the subject and moving to finish as rapidly as possible in order to add more energy and excitement to your painting.

Each day will begin with a short lecture and full demonstration, followed by one-on-one instruction with students. My class is highly tailored for each participant, and beginners as well as advanced artists are welcome. - Patrick Saunders

For #ThrowbackThursday, a great memory of a sunrise spent photographing the Unisphere in Queens.

We're in a New York state of mind today, making plans to get our annual visit there back on track in 2022.
