Television appearance Live Painting, July 3, 2016, WBAL-TV with Janelle Diamond, Managing Editor of Baltimore Bride

 I arrived a couple of hours early to begin the painting.

 Then we moved the painting behind the table so it could be in the camera shot and I painted Lacee Griffith and Janelle Diamond in while the segment on Maryland Weddings was being filmed.  They were behind me, which made it extra-challenging!

The next segment was with Chef Ben Lefenfeld of La Cuchara Restaurant, and the producer decided to leave my painting on display.

Albemarle Estate at Trump Winery First Dance Painting, painted June 5, 2016

Congratulations to the Bride and Groom and to their families.

The Albemarle Estate at Trump Winery in Charlottesville, Virginia is a spectacular place.  It reminded me of the Biltmore Estate.  This may have been the first wedding here, there is limited space for dining, but guests had use of the home theater, extensive gardens, bar, bedrooms upstairs.

Thank you to my lovely friend Helen and her husband for letting me spend the night in their home.

2016 Paca Girlfriends Party at the William Paca House, Annapolis, Maryland

Thank you to the Paca Girlfriends who invited me back to paint their 8th Annual Party at the William Paca House and Garden to benefit Historic Annapolis.

As I painted there was a silent auction.  This became quite exciting a few times.
