Before leaving the Mountain, I attended a workshop in Huntsville, AL led by Tony Couch (got to see brother and sister-in-law on the trip). He is pretty amazing for 90 years young...no, Tony. Can't paint like Tony, but I learned a lot about design and I am trying to add those elements to what I do now. First, Ol' Chad appears in another fly fishing painting called, "Mossy Creek" that I stole from our fishing guide and Arkansas pal, Bo Goins.
.Back in Naples after a very productive summer. Kevin Lundgren and his team at Edgewater Builders completed the new studio, building inspectors have signed off and I have completed two paintings! Off to a pretty good start, huh? Before leaving the Mountain, I attended a workshop in Huntsville, AL led by Tony Couch (got to see brother and sister-in-law on the trip). He is pretty amazing for 90 years young...no, Tony. Can't paint like Tony, but I learned a lot about design and I am trying to add those elements to what I do now. First, Ol' Chad appears in another fly fishing painting called, "Mossy Creek" that I stole from our fishing guide and Arkansas pal, Bo Goins. Next, is a painting based on a church in Highlands, NC. The best Sundays on the Mountain in Linville start at Wee Kirk. Music led by organist Cissy Shull and her bagpiper accompanist features her most requested hit...Highland Cathedral. That's where I stole the name for this one while visiting a long-time friend and his wife, Dr. Minor and Natalie Vernon of Macon, GA. They invited us to Highlands/Cashiers and while they waited in the restaurant, I slid down the street at dusk to find this little gem...hope you like them both...no, not Minor and Natalie...the paintings, silly. Highlands Cathedral
