Ralph at work in his studio




Curraghmore House

Rich and Linda Kelley invited some painting friends to Curraghmore for some plein air painting on the grounds May 31-June 2. Curraghmore House in Waterford is the historic home of the 8th Marquis of Waterford, where he and his wife currently still reside. The formal gardens and magnificant house (a castle really) provided the painters with an unusual, wonderful setting from which to work.



Ralph Nagel quickly gets to work.
