SEPA is an association of amateur and professional painters who paint together regularly outdoors in S.E. Ireland. All artists are welcome. SEPA organises Ireland's 'Art in the Open' plein air festival. SEPA membership is free. NB. As with all Paint-Outs posted on Plein Eire, these events are simply notifications of intent by one individual to be at a particular place and time to paint. Each member's participation is entirely at his/her own risk. No responsibility for harm or loss of person or property on the part of anyone else is intended or implied.

Here are a few ideas for paint-out venues. Please add your own suggestions and we'll get a schedule together for the coming weeks. Your addfitional recommendations welcome.

Ballinkeele House

Newtownbarry House & Gardens

Dunamore Wood (Borodale) (no facilities)

Rosslare Harbour Lagoon

Tinahely

Wexford Beaches

Wexford Gardens

The Still Pond, near Enniscorthy

 As ever, it is weather permitting, so in case the organiser needs to cancel, please indicate by RSVP for each event so a single message will let everyone know if an event is 'On' or 'Off'.

In particular, it seems smaller villages where we have access to coffee and a bite and a chance to say'hello' are sought-after venues. Here are some suggestions:

.....could do Katts Strand either as it's closer to the "Legend"....

I'll argue about most things, Karen, except history! So I'll take your word for that. You know me, I'll paint anywhere, so either North or South and I'm happy.

History of Wexford Town

In a country steeped in myth and legend Wexford's history is no exception. A story tells of its origin in the mists of time, when Garman Garbh was drowned on the mudflats by waters released by an Enchantress. The vast expanse of harbour thus created was named "The lake of Garman" or Loch Garman, the Gaelic name for Wexford.

Wexford, derived from the Norse, Weissfiord - inlet of the mudflats

Sooooo how about The North or South Slobs this Sunday for a Paintout ??? :)

The historcal theme is a good idea. Are we going to get a brief history lesson about each venue? Will be very interesting though...

The CIA would probably round us all up, Margaret!

Comment by Karen Scannell on January 28, 2013 at 13:46

Comment by Karen Scannell on January 28, 2013 at 13:45
