“Autumn in the Catskills-en plein air” by Diana K. Gibson
Diana’s painting, “Autumn in the Catskills-en plein air”, was awarded the Gamblin Artists Colors Oil Paint Award by Stephen Doherty, editor of American Artist Magazine. “With over 161 paintings in the show, and 27 prizes to be awarded, it was quite an honor to be recognized.” quotes Ms. Gibson. ”There are several gorgeous pictures in the show so I certainly feel lucky to be among the top award winners! I have already set my sights on next year’s show. There is a grand prize to be won! With some hard work and a little luck, who knows! We’ll just have to wait and see!”
Here we are painting at J&W Gallery. We spent a good portion of the day and night painting on location at the gallery. We had a blast! It was so much fun to engage with the customers and share thoughts about painting! We have been requested to return and paint at the gallery again. So stay tuned for more information about our next J&W Gallery paint out!

The proceeds of the sales were donated to the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation. Ms. Gibson donated her painting “Yellow Cheerfulness” to the Yellow Bra Art Show. Her painting was raffled and Linda Huber of Franklin Lakes was the winner of Ms. Gibson’s painting.
