Richard did this one.
I did this one.
On the fourth day of the workshop, The master painter Richard Schmid came. We demoed together in front of quite a crowd. Richard brought many pots of lilies with vibrant yellow and oranges and made a very magnificent and elaborate floral still life setup. I have never painted in front of such complicated setup, but I had no way out. Richard is such a wonderful teacher. I have learned a lot. He made everybody laugh with jokes. He has asked me if I have any Chinese jokes to tell. I was so nervous to say anything. Any way I think I did OK. When we began the demo, Richard had challenged me on who could finish the painting faster. I won that competition easily. I did a much smaller painting.

Wow wow wow....it must have been like the Superbowl of painting demos!
Both paintings are gorgeous!
What I would give to have been there! Been watching some Richard Schmid DVDs, wonderful, and have been admiring your paintings, wonderful as well. I've also enjoyed watching you transition to full time painting.
