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 Sally Downey on August 12, 2010 at 22:08: I'd love to join a Plein air group anywhere in the northern Pale.

Comment by Mary O' Carroll on August 11, 2010 at 13:20: John I am in South of city, and near the dart! Sutton no problem!
We are used to getting around with the sketchers!

Comment by john o'flynn on August 11, 2010 at 13:07: Suggestions to when & where Dublin Plien Eire should meet most welcome. I am available most days. If participants were generally spread around Dublin I thought we should alternate venues between three regions, Dublin North, South & West, to be fair to everybody. I am most familiar with north county coastal region, living in Sutton.

Comment by Mary O' Carroll on August 11, 2010 at 12:46: I agree, best to start now while the weather is good and we still have light.

Comment by Norah Blount on August 11, 2010 at 5:47: Think a first paint-out soon while the days are still long would be good

Comment by john o'flynn on August 11, 2010 at 1:30: We now seem to have 7-8 members; should we wait for more before we have an inaugeral paint-out? - JOHN

Comment by Tom Scott on August 9, 2010 at 11:38: While there are many art groups in Dublin a dedicated plein air group on the Wexford model would great.

Comment by Phil Hofler on August 8, 2010 at 12:22: Great idea setting up Plein Eire Dublin. I would love to join. Looking forward to paintouts round Dublin!

Comment by Mary O' Carroll on August 7, 2010 at 20:45: I am delighted to hear there will be a Dublin Plein Eire Group, I am looking forward to joining in!
