Calling North West Area Plein Air painters

Hi I was just wondering whether there would be interest in getting some paintouts started maybe in the spring or summer up around the North West area. Maybe some Saturdays or Sundays. I think it's…Read on...

Welcome, Neil Carrigan

Isle of Doagh 5th May

We had great weather, a nice light and a little sun too. Patsy came along to the Paintout and we had our share of spectators from time to time. It's refreshing to stop and have a wee break and chat from time to time with people met. ...and still they think that it's a relaxing pass time!!!!! Looking fwd to the next paintout, and meeting the new members of the group.

"Life is for living and should be joyful. I enjoy painting and the challenges it brings.  My work focuses on positive emotions rather than the depressive and negative aspects of life. Through the use of colour and space, on the canvas, I wish to enable the viewer to share a fresh and positive experience."   Neil Carrigan.

Sent your latest message on to Claire so now its over to her.

Aah - txt from Claire. She says that's all near her and she will call down in the a.m. So it looks like that's the end of one beautiful friendship and hopefully the beginning of another.

If you're in Wexford I'll buy you a drink. Have a good day painting.

Claire Cox of PENorthEast would love to join you. she will be on holiday in Gweedore on Sunday.  she's minus internet there so I am doing go-between.  She would like to know where and when you expect to be in Gweedore or how she might contact you.  Have a great day.
