Jeffrey Baumgartner, whom some of you may know from the Publisher’s Invitational Paint Out and others may know from his acting turns in Shakespearean stage productions, recently painted a nice picture at Philadelphia’s historic Valley Green Inn. The humidity was evidently very high that day.
“It was pouring, it wouldn’t let up, so I put plastic bags on my boots and went at it again,” says Baumgartner. A professional photographer was there to shoot a wedding, and he evidently couldn’t resist photographing a die-hard plein air painter at work.
