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

So ya never know some of ye might enjoy the steam rally!!! PLENTY of subject matter, the American painters would just Love Those old cars, trucks, etc etc.

Comment by Louise Treacy on August 15, 2015 at 23:15: Lynne same here in Tagoat .The steam rally on here too just about quarter of a mile up the road but if it's a fine day it will be mental!! Forecast looks good so could be too much of a pain, and I know EVERYONE in tho area cos I worked in the local shop and café, daycare centre etc etc so probably wouldn't get a minute to paint yak yak yak !!!!
And that's just ME!!!

Comment by Tony Robinson on August 14, 2015 at 22:50: Sunday looks ok and Monday and Tuesday look even better. Anyone else any other suggestions?

Comment by Dick Donaghue on August 14, 2015 at 19:45: Too noisy and busy for me. I'm going back to Ferrycarrig castle again. Feel it's needs a few more angles...!

Comment by Plein Eire Administrator on August 14, 2015 at 19:12: In the absence of any other suggestions, I may head down to Tagoat for the Steam Rally on Sunday if it isn't too packed. Perhaps to paint a traction engine. I hear insurance costs for the owners of these leviathans are making these rallies more and more difficult to put on these days. Thoughts, please.
