Recently Erik Koeppel and I hiked to the top of Mt. Willard. We spent the afternoon drawing and just taking in the glory of this amazing view. The view from Mt. Willard has been famously painted by, William Sheridan Young , Frank H. Shapleigh, and Benjamin Champney, among others. The View from Mt. Willard (also known as Artist’s Bluff, in the 19th century) beyond it’s fantastic view of Crawford Notch, also looks down on the Willey House site.
This summer has been a terrific season! Erik Koeppel and I taught two wonderful workshops , and this year’s Hudson River Fellowship was centered in our home in Jackson N.H.
Here are some images of some paintings done this past summer.
Recently Erik Koeppel and I attended the first annual Plein Air Convention held in Las Vegas. Hosted by Plein Air magazine , the event contained about 500 painters. Most of the outdoor painting was done just minutes from the convention in Red Rock Canyon. The convention was a blast , and it was also amazing for me to see America’s western landscape for the first time. Here are some images of some of the paintings on my trip:
“Because of Hawthorne Fine Art’s dedication to the work of women artists and scholarship surrounding women in the arts, we’re proud to be celebrating March as Women’s History Month!
In support of the historical contributions of women, Jennifer Krieger will be lecturing on “Women Artists of the Hudson River School” at the Ritz Theater in Newburgh, NY, on Saturday March 31, 2012 at 1:00pm. This presentation stems from Jennifer’s involvement as co-curator of Remember the Ladies: Women of the Hudson River School, the first exhibition of female Hudson River School artists that opened at the Thomas Cole Historic site in May 2010.
Jennifer’s lecture is the feature presentation of the annual “The General’s Lady” ceremony, sponsored by the Washington’s Headquarters State Historic Site, which is the home and property that served as George Washington’s headquarters from 1782-83 during the American Revolution. Each March, “The General’s Lady” event celebrates the historical contributions of women such as Martha Washington, who worked alongside General George Washington during the Revolutionary War as a businesswoman and hostess to military personnel. The Historic Site presents the annual “Martha Washington Woman of History Award” in honor of a woman who has contributed significantly to the preservation of Hudson Valley history. This year’s honoree is Stella Bailey, co-founder, Executive Director, and Financial Officer of the Fort Montgomery Battle Site Association, and President of the Town of Highlands Historical Society.
We hope to see you on March 31st for this free event to honor the women of history and the women of today!”
