Hope by Ron Warford, 40' x 30 " Graphite on Black Board, Framed 
Mr. Warford's work was selected by the Smithsonian Institution for a national traveling exhibition in 1973. He was one of the initial founding and teaching members at the Folk Art Gallery in Syracuse. His work spings from his imagination and is masterfully executed. Tel (315) 391-5115 for more info or to purchase. One of the presidents of a local art guild referred to Ron's work as  "master works" for their power and quality.

Strength , by Ron Warford. 20 " X 30"  

Home is Where the Hearth Is by Jaws. This piece took 600 hours. Amazingly, to produce this the artist had to put the snowflakes  in first on a white fine piece of paper and then build everything around it. Think about it - this amazing work, and other pieces of the artists work can be seen at CNY Artists Gallery, which purchased this piece in 2013.

hi all; just updating the page and checking the message board out  for my first  I've been a muralist, so I did plenty of outdoor painting, sometimes with some questionable entrepreneurial pharmacists at work a few feet behind me on the corner. I like Golden acrylics the best; great colors and not likely to be stolen, or attract unnecessary attention. Haven't done much outdoor with oils, which I mostly paint with now; and recommendations on drying mediums?

Hi Don, thanks for your feedback!

Feng, I have both a French easel and a 1/2 box french easel. I use the half box for local plein aire trips. I use the full box french easel for trips around the State and country. I even bought a large beach umbrella that screws into the ground for those hot days at sunny areas. I have a set of small Paint tubes for my 1/2 size french easel setup, since space is limited, and some screw lid pallet cups for my mediums and solvent. I keep an extra bottle of solvent in my car. I always bring my camera so I can touch-up my paintings later at home.

Yu-Ting the trip I did was offered by the Art Store; Sharon does one every year. It's a great opportunity to learn some new tricks, try some new mediums (Sharon brings all kinds of goodies for us to try) and meet other artists. I enjoyed it very much! I checked out the website you suggested. It looks like there is a lot to do, I'll have some time in August to do something with the group. Thanks for the tip.

It looks like I have to  try the Open acrylics some day.  Sounds very interesting.  I also have a homemade cigar pochade box that my husband helped build for me.  But I'm looking for a bigger setup now - either a halfbox french easel or a Guerrilla Painter French Resistant Pochade.  Anyone got experience with any of these?  Or suggest other setups?
