It was a beautiful day!
Painting with members of the PWCS at the Kuerner Farm in Chadds Ford, PA, on Friday, May 15. Kuerner Farm was the setting for some of Andrew Wyeth’s iconic works.
It was great to have artists from the Greater Philadelphia area, Washington DC, Lancaster, and New York, come out for a day of painting!
