"How much do you charge for them?", "how long did it take you?", "Is that oil paint?", "My brothers a hairdresser"!..Just some fun with these locals. They stayed for about half an hour..I was worn out chatting to them. The lad in the strips said:
"I don't like painting in colours..I only use black and white"!!
I explained to him that black and white are…

Hi Philip
How are things? Good I trust.
I’m presently helping artist/educator Vicki Norman to organise a plein air workshop in May. The details are as follows. Give me a call (087 954 2783) if you need any further info.
Best wishes
Frank Hallinan Flood
5 days of painting on location in the beautiful surroundings to the north of Dublin. Tackling a different aspect of plein air painting each day, we will visit stunning sites with tonnes of inspiration for all.
We'll begin with a short study session each morning, a demonstration, discussion or presentation on themes such as how to select a subject, designing a painting, matching and harmonising colours, capturing atmosphere and creating focal areas. Then we'll head out to paint the wonderful boats, harbours, beaches and countryside.
With friendly support and guidance we will explore the possibilities of painting in the elements. This workshop is open to artists in all media with some experience of painting in their chosen medium.
Fee per person is 295 euros. Places may be secured with a 150 euro deposit.
Bookings are for the full 5 days from 10:00am to 5 :00pm
Please note that the fee includes the workshop only. No accommodation, meals or materials are included.
Contact vicki@vickinormanstudio.com or phone Frank 087 954 2782
Hello Phillip, Thanks. Will be in Spain in June so looking for painting partners. Hopefully I can make it to Ireland in the next couple of years. Good luck with AITO this year.

nice work!
Hi Phil,
There doesn't seem to be that many plein air painters in the north east region, but I am patient, I shall keep it out there and see what happens.
Hi Philip, thank you very much.
Im so glad to be in here, to be part of this fantastic group of artists.
unfortunately I'm very far away from plein air events that take place in Ireland. May be one day I'll come over...
