For the 7th year Bob attended a painting workshop given by Taos artist/potter Stephen Kilborn this week. A Friday evening gallery show wraps up the class with each participant entering one of their works from the week. As of Friday morning Bob was undecided which of the two paintings below he will enter, either the Taos Courtyard in a vignette style or a more abstracted view of the old Arroyo Seco adobe church.
Taos Courtyard
Seco Church
Today he will finish a painting of the chapel at Pilar and perhaps start one of the Talpa church, another of his favorite subjects in the Taos area. A successful and inspiring week.

After considerable coaxing from his wife Bob painted the distinctive 200-year-old adobe church at the Pueblo of Picuris, southeast of Taos. The day we visited numerous members of the Pueblo were working on maintaining the church and grounds. We were fortunate to see the detailed, recently- restored interior.
