Smokey Joe's in Snoqualmie
I was invited by my friend Mehdi Fallahian to participate in a plein air paint out in Snoqualmie Washington. I encouraged a few of my students, Bin Li, Liz Talley and Min Zhong, to participate as well.
I drove to the Duvall Park & Ride, where I joined Bin and Min in Bin's truck. We then went off together to the event. As soon as we arrived I knew what I wanted to paint. There was an old boxy tavern named Smokey Joe's, about a block off Railroad Avenue on King Street. I set up across the street, and did the painting alla prima.

This painting was done in the later years that I was painting at Pepper's Farm, on the Snoqualmie River. The only image that I have been able to find of it was uploaded several years ago to Google Photos, when it was still called Picasa. The painting is 36 x 36 inches. The Picasa image is about 500px, not very big. It was sold not long after it was finished, through Woodside/Braseth Gallery. I do not know its current whereabouts.
