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:

Duncormick, Screen, Killinick, Lady's Island, Clohamon, Saltmills, Slade

Comment by Louise Treacy on April 29, 2012 at 10:16: too windy my god its like a hurricane here in Tagoat the wind is dire no way would any easel stand in that!!!

Comment by Karen Scannell on April 27, 2012 at 21:53: Thanks Phil..can't say I've ever been there either, we'll keep that one in mind too..... Maybe we shouldn't venture too far as the day is likely to be cut short with rain.

I wouldn't mind Borodale, as there would be a certain amount of shelter there too......

Any thoughts?

Comment by Karen Scannell on April 27, 2012 at 11:58: Thanks for the suggestions Paddy

We might be lucky from what I can see from the five day weather forecast, Sunday morning could be o.k.

Comment by Michael McGuire on April 27, 2012 at 6:14: The forecast looks pretty dire for the South East next Sunday. So unless something changes, it may be a day for the bed!
