My First Studio Showing


Rick Berg Studio - Art Show and Sale
Sat, November 19th - 29th, 2010

A couple of years ago I began construction on my new studio.  It's located at the back of my house - a good space for doing workshops and teaching.   The space is 24 x 29 feet.  Today I'm having my first show and sale in my new space.  

Here are a couple of photos of the set up....hope it's pleasing to everyone.  I'll post a few of my paintings for the show above.

If you would like to purchase a painting or are interested in my upcoming workshop schedule, please email me at rickberg@shaw.ca  


STARTING MY BLOG.....

I can't believe that I'm actually considering starting a blog.   But, here goes....wish me luck!

"Dog Pound Creek", 30x40, oil on canvas

This is a creek where I go fishing sometimes.   It's just west of my place about 30 miles.  I was inspired to do this painting when I was scouting out the creek one day.  If you look under the log you'll see a small Rainbow Trout.
