MORAN POINT

16X20

     This is one of my favorite spots at the Grand Canyon. I have painted it many times at different times of the day and of the year. This one was done from an 8x10 field study and photo reference.

STILL LIFE SET UP

TOP

ROLLING LEGS

ADJUSTABLE HANDLE

JUST SET STILL LIFE FRAME ON TOP

GOES DOWN TO 33"

GOES UP TO 48"

     I found this rolling, height adjustable table on line for $79, free shipping. It holds 200 lbs. It adjusts from 33" to 48". It comes in a box so you have to put it together, (only around a dozen nuts and bolts). I strapped my PVC frame (courtesy of Carol Marine's blog), to a piece of plywood and just set it on the top of the table. It is very sturdy and I love that it rolls around because of the close quarters in my studio.
     You can order one of these from Craig's Fordable Tools.
     I just found out that Craig's is out of these right now. I looked on Amazon and found 3 that look similiar. The first one is around $60, second one is $100, and the third is also around $60 but says will only hold 50 lbs.

NEW YEAR'S GOLD

     The first day of 2012, my dogs talked me into going down to the river bed below where we live and do a painting. They picked out this tree, so as to supply them with enough shade while I painted. I think it's in the 70s today without a cloud in the sky. A great way to start the New Year!
