Paul Kratter, Morning's Majesty From Lake Ediza
Kratter & Coy show a success and now online

The June 6 opening for our Paul Kratter - Christin Coy show "California Landscapes" was a great success! If you missed it or want to review it, the whole show — including the several pieces that sold — is now posted on the website. In particular, don't miss Paul's "home run painting," "Morning's Majesty From Lake Ediza" (above),Christin Coy painting from his High Sierra trip last summer. Christin Coy's display is very impressive. Apart from including several outstanding pieces, including the dramatic mural-like (24” x 48” canvas size) "Evening Glow Above Tomales Bay" shown here, the over-all display is a great introduction to this outstanding talent. I'm very excited to be representing Christin!

Plein Air Painting at Lake Tahoe

Christin & Michelle at the Lake
In mid June Richard and I spent five days visiting our friend Michele deBraganca in Carnelian Bay, Lake Tahoe. We painted together along the shores of the lake with spectacular views. 

Every day we checked the weather and the prediction was for scattered thunder storms. We seemed to luck out though and only had a little rain shower with some hail one of the days. The skies were filled with great clouds of every size and shape which made for interesting subject matter. Blue skies can be so boring when you are a landscape painter. All the mountain tops were still covered with snow which made me think that I was painting in my home land of Norway. The cool, cloudy weather made it even more like being there. I thoroughly enjoyed myself!

We also spent one day painting in Squaw Valley with our friend Andy Skaff, a local painter who creates magnificent paintings of aspen trees. We will be painting with Michele, Andy and 30 other artists in the second week of September at the North Tahoe Plein Air event at North Star. Mark your calenders and come up for a visit. The show will be held in conjunction with a Wine Festival that same week end.

Landscape Oil Painting Class in Marin

Christin at her Easel
May 1, 2009 began a new chapter in my professional life with my move into a new studio at the Isabel Cook Center in San Anselmo, CA.  It was originally a large classroom in a local school, but now it is a community building that houses non-profits and other artist studios.

Part of my studio is my working space and part is an open area that I will be using for teaching intermediate level artists that wish to paint landscapes in oil and want to be part of a mentoring situation on a regular basis. I will only be accepting six students so that personal attention is assured. 

Having painted in Marin for more than 15 years, I have grown to know the landscape here intimately. Click here if you want further information.  http://christincoy.com/workshops
