Yesterday, when driving along Plank Road heading to the Baldwin Center, I saw local artist, Malcolm Hughes, and one of his students with their easels set up painting the autumn colors currently coating the forest in and around Bundoran Farm.  It’s always so nice to be in a place that is so beautiful that people want to capture the views in oils, pastels and watercolors. 

To top this off, I just recieved the following in an e-mail from Malcolm.

Hello Joe,

After I saw you drive by this morning, my student Kaylie and I went out painting in the new area to the south where some new homes are going in.  I had not driven in this area (that far out) and was amazed at the views!    The forested areas, as well as the “windows” into the pastures, along with the meandering roads are really fine subjects.  I (we) will aim to not be in anyone’s way as we set up our easels.  I’m so delighted with the opportunity to work in these places.  I hope to eventually get a series of paintings together of the area.

 Malcolm

If you want to take a look at some of Malcolm’s painting, I encourage you to drop by the Baldwin Center at 5005 Edge Valley Road or visit his website — www.mhughesart.com
