SOME RECENTLY SOLD ORIGINALS, UPDATED SHOW SCHEDULE





Greetings All.

I hope and trust this finds you all well.

The 2009/2010 outdoor art show season in South Florida is in its final weeks, but we have several fine shows remaining. I have listed these dates below.

This was my first full season for doing outdoor art shows. I have been very gratified by the response and results. I have had the opportunity to show with many talented, pleasant fellow artists. The people coming to the shows have been wonderful as well: the year-long South Floridians, the "Snow Birds," (visitors for
2+ months), the "Snow Flakes" (new to me, visitors one month or so), and tourists -- many from Canada, Europe, South America, and as far away as Australia.

Sales of my limited edition, numbered Giclees (on canvas and museum-quality paper of all different sizes) of my Golf Landscapes, Florida Scapes/Low Country scenes, and my new series of Dunes and Seascapes this year have been very active and successful resulting in many sales. I also added packs of greeting cards for both the Golf Landscapes and packs of Florida Scapes-- six in a pack with envelopes-- they continue to sell like "hot-cakes" at all shows. I'll probably have them in some area gift shops in the near future.

I have also been very satisfied with the sales of my originals and commissions for original paintings which I have received this season. Above, please find some of the originals which I have recently sold.



REMAINING OUTDOOR SHOWS

Note: All Delray Art League shows, Saturday and Sunday, 9:30AM- 4:30PM at Veterans Park, East Atlantic, NorthEast side of Intracoastal:

* March 13 - 14, Delray Art League

* March 20 - 21, Delray Art League

* April 10 - 11, Lake Worth Art League, Sat., Sun., 10:00AM-4:00PM, downtown Lake Worth, Lake Avenue, park across street from TooJay's Deli.

Thanks for all of your interest this season. I will keep you posted throughout the year. I will be working on several commissions in the near future as well as some special painting projects in the coming months. There is a good chance that I'll be returning to full-time teaching in the fall. I will also be busy during the coming summer months with new paintings gearing up for the 2010/2011 South Florida outdoor art show season (November 2010- April 2011).

Best wishes to you and yours.

Be well, Greg

"DUNES SERIES, 2009"-- Four Original Oils Completed and Presented







Greetings All,

I hope and trust this finds you all well.

I am very happy to introduce four paintings in my "DUNES SERIES, 2009" recently completed. All four paintings are based on photos that I took this past July off the coasts of Jacksonville, Ponte Vedre, and St. Augustine beaches.

The look and feel of these paintings are refreshingly different for me. Don't get me wrong-- I continue to focus on local and nationally well-known golf courses for my golf landscapes and their related limited edition Giclee prints. In addition, I continue to love painting memorable scenes of the limitless depth and breadth of Florida's backwoods and wetlands.

However, this "Dune Series" has pushed me into an area that is so much reflective of another aspect of Florida's and the South's natural beauty that has always intrigued me. More paintings of this subject area will follow in the future.

The paintings in this series (that are first being publicly offered this weekend at the Delray Art League's outdoor show at Veteran's Park, Dec. 12, 13, 2009) :

16" x 20", "Dunes Series, 2009-- Summer Sail", Original Oil

14" x 18", "Dunes Series, 2009-- Sand's Warmth" Original Oil

12" x 24", "Dunes Series, 2009-- Rolling Tide" Original Oil

11" x 14", "Dunes Series, 2009 -- Sea Oats Symphony" Original Oil

As always, the photos here do not do justice to the colors and subtleties of these scenes. They have to be seen "in person."

I hope you enjoy these paintings as much as I did in creating them.

Be well, Greg

Donated Original, AUGUSTA NATIONAL, Number 12, Original Oil, 24"x30" [unframed], Value, $ 3500.00, For "Friends of Ken Green Fundraising Tournament"



Greetings All,

I hope and trust everyone had an enjoyable and meaningful Thanksgiving. I did.

On Monday, November 23, 2009, I had the distinct honor and pleasure of playing in the "Friends of Ken Green" fundraiser tournament at Rees Jones Breakers West Country Club in West Palm Beach. I played as the guest of one of the tournament's organizers.

Our fivesome's pro was Jasper Parnevik who was very hospitable and enjoyable to play with.

I donated for the live auction, held in the beautiful Breakers West clubhouse following the golf, my AUGUSTA NATIONAL, Number 12, original oil, framed, 24"x30" [unframed] with a value of $ 3500.00. I was very pleased with where it ended up with the winning bidders.

Ken Green, a five-time winner on the PGA tour, has by his own repeated admissions contended with many demons in his professional and personal life. Six months ago, while returning from a PGA Champions Tour tournament, Ken was in a horrifically tragic accident in his RV with his brother, girlfriend of many years, and his beloved German Shepherd dying in the crash. Ken suffered severe injuries. Faced with his doctors' prognosis, Ken had his mangled left leg amputated at the knee in hopes of returning to golf. With the aid of a prosthesis (that is still a work a progress), Ken has played some golf. He is determined to make a comeback to the PGA Champions' Tour. It was inspiring to see him at the Nov. 23 event at Breakers West. To find out more about Ken's journey to return to professional golf, and the many fine family members and friends helping him, please see www.kengreenscomeback.com.

Be well all.

Brett Rendina- "All Ivy League Golf, 2009," Atlantic City Country Club painting Unveiled





Greetings All,

I hope and trust everyone is ready for an enjoyable and meaningful Thanksgiving, 2009.

This past Sunday evening, November 22, 2009, I had the distinct pleasure and honor of attending a special family gathering at Richard and Barbara Rendina's lovely home in Steeplechase, Palm Beach Gardens, Florida. The "special occasion" was the unveiling of a surprise painting for their son Brett, which Rich and Barbara commissioned me do several months ago.

The painting (see above) is of the 18th hole at the world-re known Atlantic City Country Club with Brett in the foreground re-living this past year's "All Ivy League Golf Tournament, 2009" in which Brett placed an impressive 2nd out of the entire field-- just one shot back of the eventual winner.

I had the honor and privilege of coaching Brett (CNHS, 2005) for four years on the Cardinal Newman High School golf team in West Palm.

Brett went on to the University of Pennsylvania and had a very successful four years there on the golf team as well as excelling academically. Brett graduated Penn class of 2009.

His dad, Rich and mother Barbara wanted to surprise him with this special graduation gift that graphically celebrates his wonderful four years at Penn.

Together with his parents, sister Rachel, maternal and paternal grandmothers, many cousins and other relatives, and many friends, the painting was unveiled to Brett's surprise.

It gave me much pleasure and gratification to be part of this celebration and to have painted this special work.

Please see above the photos of the painting, and Rich Rendina and son Brett holding the work after it was unveiled.

Be well, Greg

Delray Art League's First Show, Nov. 14-15, 2009, of the 2009/2010 Season



Hello All,

This past weekend, November 14 and 15, we in the Delray Art League had our first of the 2009/2010 Season's 13 shows extended through early April, 2010.

The crowd was relatively small but wonderful-- the weather cooperated both days. Sales were kind of slow-- but business at these shows historically pick up in December and a quite good through the end of the season.

Our next show is Thanksgiving weekend, Nov. 28 and 29. This show should be a much better show as there is also a Downtown Delray arts and crafts show that will send a lot of people our way.

All of the Delray Art League's outdoor shows are hosted at the beautiful Veterans Park, located on East Atlantic Blvd on the northwest side of the Intracoastal.

The schedule for the next two months (I'll have regular postings here for future shows) of the Delray Art League ( Saturdays and Sundays, 9:30 AM -- 4:30 PM ):

NOV. 28 , 29
DEC. 12, 13
JAN. 16, 17; JAN. 23, 24; JAN. 30, 31

There are a couple of pictures above of this past weekend's Delray Art League's show.

Be well, Greg
