Plein Air Painting a Covered Bridge with Jessica Henry Gray

Hello Everyone and Happy New Year! Who doesn't love a covered bridge in the fall?! Be still my heart~ This is my first official video of the New Year and I am excited to be back with you! This little video was filmed last fall when the colors were rich and lovely. We are now in the taupe-greys of an Ohio January winter and a little color might just be in order!

This demonstration is packed with useful information for the next time you venture out or stay in, as the concepts of painting education are all the same. Whether you are painting in the studio or venturing out, I hope you find a "nugget" here you can take with you.

I want to mention a couple things briefly. First, I will be coming on YouTube live as well as Facebook Live on Fridays (as I am able) to do short tutorials on some basic studio essentials. I hope to do this over and above my semi regular videos.

Next, I will be blogging more this year sharing with you some quick thoughts on painting, tips, techniques, recommended books, insights on travel, my crazy adventures, thoughts on upcoming videos, as well as inspiration thoughts, where I am in my cancer journey, my books I am working on, as well as spinning wool and knitting, the list goes on- basically anything that is creative, inspirational or instructional towards art.

Join my blog as my newsletter to stay informed of new plans this year, 2022. I will be adding more workshops, complete instructional videos on my web site, as well as personal/private online workshops! Plus more, don't miss a thing!
