The Winter Park PaintOut, which was based at on the grounds of the beautiful and historic Albin Polasek Museum in Winter Park was a big success for everyone involved. Being the first annual event, it was easily determined by the founders of the paintout that it was the beginning of a new springtime tradition. Every participating artist – over twenty five in all – sold works at the event which help raise much needed funds for the museum. The idea for the paintout was hatched by Hal Stringer and Gary Hollingsworth both of which are heavily involved in the local art community in the Orlando area. This knowledge gave them a large group of gifted painters on which to call upon for the event. “The talent at this event was unparalleled” says Peter Pettegrew who sold three of the four works he created during the event. “Everywhere you looked there were incredible paintings in the works by the best painters of the area.” Several workshops were held during the event to help educate collectors on the different approaches on Plein Air Painting each artist employs, including area great Tom Sadler who gave an interesting demonstration on old masters techniques which drew both collectors and artists alike. The final night of the event was a beautiful evening. Inside the museum, all of the works were on display among a crowd of admirers. Outside among the sculpture gardens, delicious catering, being prepared (and donated) by some of the areas best restaurants was available for collectors to relax and decide which paintings might go home with them that night. Red dots (sold stickers) lined the walls beneath the paintings and everyone involved felt a sense of hope and accomplishment for the event and the support of those who still need art to bring beauty and joy into their lives.

St Petersburg artist Carrie Jadus & Caleb will be facing off behind their easels and painting each other at work here at the gallery one during the St Petersburg Second Saturday Art Walk. This first experiement is a tentative step toward including more St Pete and Tampa Bay artists in portrait exchange events, the likes of which are gaining popularity in cities across the US.
Renowned wild Florida landscape artist Dorothy Starbuck is now exclusively represented and published by Southern Fields, Inc. of St Petersburg, Florida. Although Southern Fields had been publishing several of Starbuck’s more recent fine art Giclee prints, her entire catalogue is now being managed and distributed by Southern Fields. Interior Motives makes Dorothy Starbuck’s work available in the St Petersburg area.
Some of Dorothy Starbuck’s prints newly available through Interior Motives Gallery are shown below. These prints are available on canvas or fine watercolor paper in a variety of sizes.

St Petersburg artist Caleb has three new paintings on offer at Interior Motives. These are all 22×30 acrylic paintings on gessoed watercolor paper. Caleb has been using marble flour as an additive to his paints to add a matte effect and make his paintings more “pastel-ish”, as he puts it. “I love pastels,” he says, “but they are so delicate, and the dust! Oy. These acrylic paintings are damn near indestructible, though.” We’ll take your word on that, Caleb.
