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.

I have been telling people about the plein Eire Dublin group and a good fewv said that they would love to go and join the group. I am up to my eyes at the moment with the charity show and the raffle in aid of the childrens hospice. I am also having a one man show in kilkenny. I would love to see you at the show in Stillorgan .

Kind regards,

Paint Outs should be posted on both "PE Dublin" & "Events" pages, I think. Sally - thanks for tip on "Sending to Group" - I'll try to remember - I had impression page automatically sent new postings on group page to all group members, no?

Tks for compliments on Glasnevin logo-pic; here's another suggestion - (guess where!?); I have one also of Four Courts - and a better oil of Galsnevin in snow - I'll post them in coming days. Post some suggestion if you have them. Whatever the consensus...I didnt think Glasnevin would be a quintessentially "Dublin" pic for those who arent in the "know" - but then all PE Dub members would be familiar with city's landmarks! - For now - JOHN O F

Comment by Sally Downey on October 3, 2011 at 16:47: Glad to see you're coming to Balbriggan. The weather has got to be better than last Saturday.

Not sure why you want to change your thumbnail. Its very identifiable.

I've noted your revised comment and am impressed. Could I suggest that when you post info re. paint out you notify group members by copying and pasting and 'Sending a Message to Group' (little box on top right, above list of members). That way each member gets an email re outing.

Comment by Norah Blount on October 3, 2011 at 10:25: Still think it would be better to post locations on the Events Page, the watercolour of Glasnevin looks good to me

Comment by john o'flynn on October 2, 2011 at 19:25: Hi all,

You might note I've managed to insert a comment at the top of this page replacing the outdated content and explaining what we do; it would be nice now to replace the expedient water colour of Glasnevin green house with an archytypal thumbnail that says "Plein Eire Dublin" : any nominations? (suggestion: paste your thumbnail into a comment box like this, but reduce width (in pixels) to about 200 so it fits and it roughly the size it might be used at in our header); When a few are in we'll start voting!

Best, JOHN O F
