We have been like ships in the night, making contact but never quite meeting. You sound a bit like myself with your impetuosity in ordering the book so quickly. I heard you saying you would, and I meant to have a word with you, that you're more than welcome to have mine anytime, for as long as you like. Sometimes they're quite expensive when listed, but my experience is that for the one penny you should get it for less than a fiver. Unfortunately, due to my late arrival, we weren't introduced - I had been wondering who that attractive lady diagonally across from me was. It dawned on meafter I'd left, that it was probably yourself - your photo doesn't do you justice. So, Norah, I look forward to meeting up with again and we might even get around to having a chat. I enjoyed your painting of the tree, with its almost sculptural effect.
Thank you for comment on my Evening Stillness. That painting was done in January.....I find the winter light more interesting. I wish someone would design a pair of heated fitted gloves!!!!!!!!!
Delighted to hear from you, Yes it's me and I still play tennis but not quits so regularly, not enough time! I dont even have enough time for my art! Have just looked at your artwork how lovely it is excellent composition and light and a delicate touch. I didnt know you were painting, is this since you moved to Mullingar? Wonderful. Delighted to connect again, I am still in Lucan. I will definately go out with you but have family commitments right now. It is my total love to paint outside and have been doing it for years, but one does need to have company. M
Thanks for explaining that to me Norah - about sending message to friends.
As far as I know all that is involved in hosting is that you decide on the site , the meeting place and time and let us all know via Groups and Events. So get your thinking cap on.
Really enjoyed painting the castle at Trim. Who ever thought that it would be so hard to paint stonework! Really enjoyed the challenge and pleased with result. Enjoyed Kilcock, great bunch of people. Might be able to get to Virginia.
We have often thought about it Norah only the weather let us down at the last minute. However, we regularly paint at a lovely quaint schoolhouse in Mullaghmore every Saturday during the day and Monday evening. Up to now the only outdoor painting our painting group have done over the last couple of years is in Marbella and Tuscany. That's why I joined this group.... to paint in my own country next year, and indeed Mullaghmore will definitely be a perfect location.
Hi Norah, in case it may suit you I sent below comment to Ann:
Ann care to meet up around 2 tomorrow, Tuesday the 9th? Anywhere you'd care to paint is great with me, whether Glasson or Ballymahon. I'm 087 9913651 Be grand, from my perspective, if anyone else cared to join.
Thanks for your lovely comments Nora..your right about the color that's around at the moment..I don't think I've seen anything like it before...stunning. Feel like a child in a sweet shop! Hope you get a chance to try and capture it soon. We've a load of hints now for keeping warm..polystyrene mat, bamboo fiber thermals,nylon stockings over your shoes ..Target store for undies..electric gloves..we'll be like aliens from another world...............!

Hi Nora,
Don't forget a headlamp on Thurs. ( even if it can be attached to your easel somehow) . .The campers headlamp has a "Blue" hue from it which is easier to read your colors with. -

Hi Norah,
Most of your paintings are more than paintings, they are pure poetry and your brush loves flowers that's for sure:)
Delighted to hear from you, Norah.
