Plein Eire Dublin Paint-Outs

A 'Paint-Out' can be arranged by anyone. Even an impromptu session can be posted here if the weather is promising and you have an afternoon or a morning to spare. We try to meet regularly. Just decide on a time and a suitable venue and post a notice on the group page and 'Events'.

Time and location to be posted in advance both on "Plein Eire Dublin" and "Events" pages on this Plein Eire site.

RSVP on 'Events' for notice to be sent to you in the event of any change in plans or check this Plein Eire Dublin Group page on the morning of a paint-out .

Nominate a time and location with reasonable painting prospects.
Identify a local cafe or hostelry for artists to meet in before and after.
Indicate if there is parking available nearby, and if its free or metered.
Post the suggestion to 'Events'and copy and paste the link to the Comment Wall below on this page.

Members may also propose paint-outs at other times as suits them and ask for other members who may be available to join them.

No charge!!

Hi All,

Frank was saying that we haven't painted in Trinity College for ages soooo...

Next Saturday's (8th March) paint out is in Trinity College Dublin.

We'll meet at 11.00am in the cafe in the National Gallery, and go over from there.

If the weather is poor, we can always stay in the Gallery - or draw and paint from under the colonnades of the classical buildings.

Wrap up warmly, and we'll meet back up in the National Gallery cafe at 3.00pm.

I'm posting this up in the events.

Comment by Valerie Syms Martin on February 25, 2014 at 21:51: Excellent idea!

Comment by Terence Gillespie on February 25, 2014 at 17:41: How about combining with Boyne Valley for a paint-out in the Botanic Gardens. See Boyne Valley for details.

Comment by Valerie Syms Martin on February 20, 2014 at 14:18: Hi,

I can't be there on 1st March. Can somebody else plan the Paint Out please?

Thanks.

Comment by Valerie Syms Martin on February 1, 2014 at 9:55: The Harbour Bar doesn't open until 12.00! I'm going along at 11.00 and will paint in the car until then.

The bar is a wonderful place to paint. Delightful clutter everywhere. I'm sure the bar owner would love the custom.

Or you can paint from your cars as I'll be doing.

Comment by Valerie Syms Martin on January 29, 2014 at 9:50: Saturday.

Comment by Frank Hallinan Flood on January 28, 2014 at 19:54: Hi Valerie Is that Saturday or Sunday?

Comment by Valerie Syms Martin on January 28, 2014 at 17:47: Hi All,

This month's paint out is in Bray Harbour.

Meet at 11.00am in the Harbour Bar. There are plenty of parking spaces, and if you like you can bring bread to feed the swans.

Be sure to wrap up warmly - plenty of layers - and pray fro good weather!

Comment by Valerie Syms Martin on January 8, 2014 at 19:14: Beautiful work Jean!

Sorry we didn't get to meet up hey - there's always next time.

Saturdays suit me too, but there is nothing to stop somebody else arranging a paint out for a Sunday or two...
