Sorry , I don't meant o be rude... but I can't talk to you while I'm painting

I prefer to paint out doors because I can see all the subtle nuances in color and light patterns. Although there are artists that seem to entertain onlookers while they paint and then possibly sell their painting right off the easel, I am reluctant to even talk . I don't mean to be rude, , it just takes my total concentration to be able to see all things out there that you like to see in my paintings. Usually I get approached right when I set up the easel more often the when the painting is almost finished. I will get comments when I have only the drawing down and maybe two swashes of color. Ussually they look pretty bad in the beginning. When painting a moving changing subject like I do , I am analyzing, comparing colors to each other and looking for suble changes as the light , swell and tides change. So I can't really turn my head to look at you and slap the canvas with paint while we chat. It takes careful observation and thoughtful application to make a painting.
I participate in gallery shows where you can meet the artist, and this is where I love to chat. So please check out my upcoming events.
