AND, some really BIG news! My photograph, "Reflections on Pamnomet Pond", has been selected by the RI State Council on the Arts as a finalist in the "Scenes of Rhode Island" show, one of only 44 entries accepted into this year's exhibit opening at the State House next week, December 7th! This was an amazing sunset outside my studio on Sunday, October 25th... the water was so still that the reflections were as clear as the sky. I'll have a smaller version available at this weekend's OPEN STUDIO.

Donovan Way is off West Main Road in Little Compton just after you cross the Tiverton line, 2 miles south of Four Corners. 

SPRING!!!!!

Spring is just AMAZING here on Pamnomet Pond at the studio! The ospreys are back and the spring birds are welcoming the nice weather. Ferolbink Farm has turned green overnight.... what a view! It's been a busy few months here at Donovan Studio. The pastel/watercolor class on Monday mornings was just wonderful. I've been painting regularly and loving the freedom since selling the Donovan Gallery. I'm looking forward to the South Coast Artists OPEN STUDIO TOURS the weekends of July 18/19 and August 22/23! I am on the board of the South Coast Artists as Press Relations Chair .... what an amazing group of volunteers! See http://www.southcoastartists.org/ for more info! Call or stop by anytime! I'm usually here.....
