Dreaming of being able to freely wander the streets of SoHo again.

Not sure yet if our annual Manhattan visit is going to happen. Fingers crossed.

Patrick Saunders Fine Arts - January 2021 Art Newsletter - Labels and Limitations

People will always want to label your art.

It's understandable, but don't let categories define you.

Artist friends, if you would like to paint plein air with me, this is your opportunity. I can teach you to paint any subject, from the most simple to complex, with one approach. This workshop is open to beginners as well as more advanced artists. If you're a beginner, I can get you started, and if you are an experienced painter, I can take you to the next level. Acrylic and pastel artists are also welcome.

I can’t wait to teach in person workshops again! - Patrick Saunders

Saunders Fine Arts POTD - Covered In Snow In Texas

One more photo taken during the recent snowfall in Texas.

We were worried this big beautiful Eastern Red Cedar might be damaged by the heavy snow, but it came through just fine.

Saunders Fine Arts POTD - Snow In Texas!?!

We have been wintering in Texas ever since we hit the road in 2015 in order to avoid this very cold white stuff, but we will concede that it is quite pretty when you don't have to drive in it or shovel it.

Just hurry up and melt quickly, because we don't own snow boots anymore. - Kimberly
