I had a most glorious day yesterday thanks to my friend and fellow artist Jean Ann. She invited a group of artist friends to her gorgeous home and property today. When we arrived she had a fantastic spread of food, including very delicious prosciutto and brie sandwiches, fruit, hummus, luncheon meats etc. The cake pops brought by friend Kathleen were excellent and worth the calories.
Half of the group painted inside in her barn's kitchen (which has A/C) and the rest, including myself, painted outside. There was so much to choose from, her unbelievable barn, pastures with horses grazing, the house, the gardens, so many places. We all agreed that the quaintest building for painting, however. was the well house.which must be original to the house and thus built in the 1700s. There was a lovely breeze and shade to offset the scorching hot day, but we all wilted just the same.
I'm still blown away by Jean Ann's barn. It was so beautiful with hardwood floors and a kitchen, living room and exercise room that are more beautiful than most houses. Below that floor are the stables, with a hot shower for the horses!!!! I'm so lucky and honored that Jean Ann shared such beauty with us. What a gracious host. Everyone didn't want to leave--certainly I didn't--and can't wait for the next visit.
