ames Hempel wins 1st place award at WIPAPA Brush with the Wind

I'm honored to have won the 1st Place award at the Wisconsin Plein Air painters show over the weekend for my painting "Shops on Main", painted in last summer's Beloit Plein Air. I had 4 paintings accepted into the juried show, of which there are 75 paintings overall. The show will remain up at Jack Richeson & Co. in Kimberly, WI until June 29th for anyone who would like to see the entire exhibit in person.
WIPAPA currently has 128 members, and is open to any Wisconsin plein air painters who would like to join.

Best Regards,
 James Hempel
