Ron Paras is back for this year's Fall Art Tour! H Ron Paras is back for this year's Fall Art Tour! He says, "The process of making art is a captivating journey of self-discovery that demands an openness to the unexpected. I often feel like a hitchhiker on a road in the desert – thumb extended, waiting impatiently for a ride. Some days the roads are deserted and all that comes my way is frustration. Yet on other days, often when least expected, I am transported down great avenues of discovery. Each of my images is a marker on the mysterious highways and byways of this artistic journey. They are the ideas and feelings that I catch sight of as they pass through me, often inspired by the beauty and magic of nature or the absurdities of human nature. My aim is to capture the essence or spirit of things that are not easily defined or articulated; those things that are often lost in the hustle and bustle of daily routines and obscured by endless distractions. I endeavor to create images that not only capture the eye but also stir emotions and provoke thought. This involves immersing myself in the stillness that surrounds us."

If you happen to find yourself in the south of Fra If you happen to find yourself in the south of France in August, check out the Group Show with Rappahannock County artists Rosabel Goodman and Ruth Anna Stolk, and Brit Frances Meadows from August 18 – August 30, 2026, with an Artist Reception on August 21, 2026 at 6:00 pm
 
These three artists met as legal staff at the Iran-US Claims Tribunal 45 years ago. Now, in their retirement, each has a house in Castelnau de Montmiral in the south of France and have become artists. Frances Meadows paints landscapes and makes botanical drawings, Rosabel paints abstract and realistic trees, and Ruth Anna Stolk paints watercolors. On the poster are images of Frances’ artichoke, Rosabel’s trees, and the view from Ruth Anna’s Castelnau terrace.

First three images are Rosabel Goodman's work; last image is the flyer for the show featuring images from Ruth Anna and Frances.
