Some of what I have been painting is for a two person show that I will be in with Gladys Roldan de Moras. The show will be at the M Gallery of Fine Art in Sarasota, FL on Nov. 5th. I will also be teaching a 5 day plain air painting workshop in Sarasota Nov. 8th through 12th. The cost is $600. and you can now sign up by contacting Crystal at the M Gallery. cwagner@mgalleryoffineart.com
I am heading to Sarasota Florida at the end of this month to paint with Marc Hanson for a few days. He is going to teach me how to be gator bait. I have never painted in Florida before and I'm looking forward to the challenge of some new scenery.
This painting is a painting I just finished of a boat in Provincetown harbor.

That's one beautiful boat, Frank! So, are you back on the East Coast now?
A gorgeous boat, and a marvelous sky to go with it - exceptional!
You've never been gone from my mind, Frank!!! Someone just said on a recent blog post that I must have really learned a few tricks from you.. Gosh I hope so.... I took your class TWICE.... You tried hard enough... LOL ;o)
All I can say is lucky, lucky people who take your class in Florida!!!
This boat scene is amazing!!!
AND.... I hope Marc doesn't really use you for gator bait... You know they are more ubiquitous in Florida than the rattlers are in Mexico!!!
Hi Michael, thanks. No, it's a studio piece. Will be on the Cape painting before too long though.
Thanks Claire, glad you like the sky.
Well, when I saw April 7th as my last blog post Marian I realized how long it had been. You are really doing some nice things these days. I can't take the credit for that. Your just working hard at it.
Yeah, I'll tie Marc's shoelaces together so he trips when he tries to run and they get him first.
Hey Frank, nice one...and congrats on getting with the blog - i haven't touched mine, gotta get it going.
Cheers-
Frank, That is a really beautiful painting, enjoy Sarasota!
nIce piece Frank! Im especially digging the masts and rigging, the way you wove them into the sky.
Love this painting--you will love Sarasota!
I live to see your touch in this boat painting, Frank! Beautiful as always.
Hey there Frank!... Glad to see
"You" back posting! Looks as if "I" am amongst a legion of Frank Followers... who have awaited your return... on "baited" breath!
This Provincetown piece is one of my favourites... truly... a Gardner gem... no crown jewel!!
Lucky dog to be pushin' paint with Marc Hanson... another marvelous plein air master...whose work and work ethic... I deeply admire!
Good painting!... Good sales.... and Good workshopping!
Warmest regards,
Bruce
Really like the motion in this piece: into the painting w/ the dock reflection, up the dock pillars, across the dock, into and down the boat, then around. I went to Sarasota once in '69!
Nice work Frank! Just realized you are in Windrush too. Say hi to Mark H. for me.
Frank, just love your brushwork! excellent work.
