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.

Comment by john o'flynn on September 10, 2013 at 8:03: Very good turn out to "Schoolhouse For Art" in Enniskerry on Sat, 12 artists, even tho' the weather was un-promising - and remained so! Above scene from "deep behind enemy lines" (-you know where!) - where I was given up for as "lost in action" as afternoon progressed!

I'm going to suggest the Iveagh Gardens again for First-Sat-Oct paint-out, as I put a v positive spin on attendance at August's outing there (good to know you were all at AITO in Wexfrd!) and for Oct & Nov we should perhaps try and catch autumnal colours- Stephen's Green nearby too. If you have any other suggestions, now's the time to speak up! - JOF

Comment by Sally Downey on September 8, 2013 at 11:28: Mornin' David. We're very glad to have you as a signed-up member of PEBV. Hope you don't really regret your trip to Skerries yesterday. The 'Air' can be just as 'Plein' whatever group you're with. While PEBV covers the Boyne Valley we do loose the hard edges now and then and drift into Dublin and elsewhere now and then.

Comment by David Goldberg on September 8, 2013 at 9:14: I thought I had joined Dublin last month? Eh? Well I didn't get any postings from BVPE and went to Skerries in the rain. Can't understand why no postings came in to my computer?

Comment by Inez Nordell on September 7, 2013 at 9:12: Yes Carole they do work! had an infestation a couple of years ago. I have them all over the house and they act as a good deterrent!

Comment by Carole Ann Margaret Cullen on September 7, 2013 at 7:58: Whoops sorry won't be coming today as we seem to have mice in the skirting boards in our bedroom....the scratching sounds like a 5 * hailstorm at 4 am. So that's my excuse and I'm sticking to it ! Hope you have a great day. Do those plug in mouse repellers work ?

Comment by Bea Jordan on September 7, 2013 at 7:25: Hi John
Is it going ahead today in Enniskerry. Its lashing here in Naas.

Comment by Inez Nordell on September 6, 2013 at 19:48: Thanks John, good idea but really walking at all is a struggle at the moment. Hope it will ease in a couple of days. Enjoy the day out!

Comment by john o'flynn on September 6, 2013 at 18:13: Inez-sorry to hear-I'd offer you a lift but I'm going to Dart/bike it - for the sake of my knees - & heart & lungs - long term! Praps someone else might give you a lift and you can just sit in village centre and paint...Do get well soon...- JOF

Comment by Inez Nordell on September 6, 2013 at 17:02: Hi John,

Sad to say I won't be able to go along to Enniskerry tomorrow. I've injured my knee and am not too mobile. Have a great day , hope the weather is in your favour. Inez
