For four years, I have been able to paint on the Kuerner farm where Andrew Wyeth painted for 7 decades. This past fall, I tried to plein air paint postcards of several small scenes from the farm. Here is the final watercolor. You see the first is a view of the farm from the hay field. The top right is the table on the front porch.

As we see 2016 slip into the past, we are thankful to have been able to paint and see so many of you at my shows and while I was outdoors painting.
