webpage revision

I am in the process of revising my webpage.

Plein Air

I got outside to do some painting today. I crossed a fallen log over a stream to a little island at Dorris Ranch. Nice spot next to the Willamette River with Red Breasted Sapsuckers working and Ospreys fishing. It really felt like spring.

'Fresh' fruit, ripe for the painting

Here is the link to the article in the Torch by David Branham.

In the Torch

Thanks to David Branham at Land Community College's newspaper The Torch for the article on my exhibit at the David Joyce Gallery. I will post a link to the article when they post it on their web page. I have to mention a typo on the URL for my web page; it should be http://www.johnholdway.com . The show will run through April 12, 2010. I would love to hear from you if you make it over to see it. You can post a comment on my blog.
