Since 1989 Vaughan has been an art instructor, teaching workshops across the USA. Vaughan has studied with the best:  Ray Vinella, Kevin Macpherson, Ann Templeton, Kathryn Stats and Carolyn Anderson. As a plein air painter she now paints on location all across America.  “My favorite place is around the countryside and farms of the USA I just completed 365 daily small works depicting our Last Year on the Farm…the place where my husband was raised and our children were the fourth generation”. The exhibit was featured at museum venues, and received national acclaim and awards. All 365 works are on the web site, along with Vaughan’s field notes from each canvas. Her new projects are chronicled on her daily blog.
