Z in Fallbrook!

What a treat it was to see Joseph Zbukvic in Fallbrook, California again.  He is here to teach a 5-day workshop that I didn't find out about soon enough this time to get a spot.  I was in his Fallbrook workshop in 2013 and posted about that experience in two parts, Z Workshop! Part 1 with a link to Part 2.  Luckily for me, Joseph was very generous and agreed to paint a piece as a fundraiser for the Fallbrook School of the Arts.  I was able to get tickets for this sold out demonstration.  After a full day of teaching, still with some jet lag, Joseph painted a gorgeous, full sheet view of Venice.  It was wonderful to see him paint in person since I didn't get a coveted place in his workshop.  I was also very happy to reconnect with some friends at the demo, and I met two new Facebook friends I had only known online.  When Joseph finished the piece he auctioned it off himself to the audience there.  The price kept going UP, finally ending at $4,000!       

Just finished!

The action started!
