64 Fall in Kentucky; this family store is where we paint in plein air

Several previous paintings in plein air with pastel revitalized my return to oil, bringing out more color and purer hues after using the 48 colors in my pastel box.
Kentucky Appalachia Outdoor Painters keep finding the treasures of rural Kentucky to paint on location and en plein air. And that’s exactly what we found at Beech Springs Farm Market, 4776 Old Boonesboro Road, Winchester, Kentucky.
Painting the rural life of Kentucky, we find this thriving family store and orchard that has been in the same family for three generations. Mary Beth Hendricks is that third generation. Her grandfather started the business. Her father and she continued. And her son has helped out. So actually four generations are possibly down the road.
Includes an interview with Mitchell Skaggs in the store, the steps and progress of my fall still life in oil, and the finished work of Debbie Billips.
I am a member of Plein Air Artists of Central Kentucky; Plein Air Painters of the Bluegrass; and the Kentucky Appalachia Outdoor Painters.
