Update In Process: Peter's Garden Lunch
I have always loved and been busy making art. Education: B.S. in Graphic Design from SUNY at Buffalo and a Master of Liberal Arts degree in 2008 (concentrated in Art History), from Harvard University. Six years post graduate study and training at Ingbretson Studios http://studio.ingbretson.com/ learning the Boston Style of contemporary realism.
I paint on a regular basis and am busy teaching art. You can find some of the results here on this artblog.

This piece is sooo nice. All the elements working together for a great looking painting. Nice spot to paint.
Love how the gray sets off the color. Very nice.
Thanks to for showing your set up. I could never paint that close to a fine drapery fabric with out adding in some color of my own.
Love seeing people's workspace. Great gray's in the piece.
Looking really beautiful! So nice to see you taking on a larger painting. Love the subtle colors.
Lovely piece. The color is beautiful and the grays work so well! I enjoy the feeling in your work. Elegant!
Great job on all of the shiny surfaces. Love the composition! You have a lovely studio!
This is looking really great. I need to do some larger pieces, too.
Look at this! You have this little tiny VERY NEAT spot with a still life tucked into the corner. Just an easel and a couple of small lamps.
Genius!
Love the painting.
thanks all!!! Dewberry, the drapes were solid white when I first hung them. (actually I sew , line etc. all the drapes in my house..another artistic endeavor).
Mary, my working space can expand and fill more of this large room, it is neat now but has had its messier moments! I somehow backed myself into corner by making my current still life set up for larger works ontop of that slant top desk...so it forces me to move the easel over...but it is comfortable for me now so I will endure. I own some portable metal easels that can be screwed to tops of counters or tables and they provide me with good temporary easels for quicker small paintings while I am using my larger easels for big still lifes. My Carol Marine panel holder works well with a portable easel for smaller panels and my portable metal screw-on easels.
I also have some other easels that stand on floor, but I dont use them unless I am doing several large paintings all at the same time...which rarely happens. When I was painting theater sets I would stand the 8foot tall masonite panels againt the walls in the catherdral ceiling adjacent room and paint them. plastic sheets stapled to walls ina few spots kept the walls from splatter.
