Oil Painting by Trish Harding

My teacher and mentor, Trish Harding, painted this painting of the view from Woodstock Farm in Bellingham. I photographed it and 19 other of her paintings today. This is something I do to earn a bit of money to help pay for my painting habit. In Trish's case, I get credit toward her classes and Open Studio. It works well for both of us. She gets high quality photos to use on her website and I get to attend more workshops and classes. I also give her print-sized images for brochures and advertisements. I love her work so it is a pleasure to photograph it. Check out the large version of this to get a feel for her brush work. I love what she does.
