Plein Aire Painting Experience




Cindy, Karen and I made it out to Lighthouse village this morning for a few hours of painting and little discussions about composition. perspective, simplification, value, etc. It was relaxed and informal.

The next planned paint out will be a week from Friday (May 19) Some are planning to meet at Wild Honey (formerly Maura's next to Bunnell) for breakfast at 9:00 followed by painting around 10:00 behind Beluga Lodge overlooking the slough for the next plein aire painting experience. If the weather is rainy they will go to the gazebo at Bishop's Beach as an alternative location. This is open to anyone who wants to paint or draw in any medium. (I'll be there if jury duty does not occur). 

Also remember to mark your calendar for the 2nd weekend in June for a Seward Paint Out (all weekend) and the 2nd weekend in August in Homer for another plein aire paint out.  Andie Sonneborn is the organizer behind these two gatherings in any medium.  These are usually well attended by artists from throughout the state and sometimes beyond and great fun. 

Keep painting!!!!
