Location: Wexford & South East Ireland.
Members: 117
Latest Activity: on Friday

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 Jan Ryan on November 1, 2015 at 11:06: Sorry I can't make it today, Sheila, happy painting

Comment by Sheila Mac Nally on November 1, 2015 at 1:37: I'll aim to be there from about 11-3 if anyone's about but can't be sure so I won't make it an event. Maybe next week!

Comment by Tony Robinson on October 31, 2015 at 2:27: It sounds like a great idea, Sheila. However, I expect I'm manning Trevor Geoghegan's show at the Pigyard Gallery. Have a go at posting it as an event (its easy).

Comment by Dick Donaghue on October 30, 2015 at 21:55: Hi Sheila, unfortunately we are still tied up with our exhibitions at the Westgate Heritage Centre in Wexford until Sunday at 5 pm. Call in on your way back from Johnstown's Castle if you have time.

Comment by Sheila Mac Nally on October 30, 2015 at 20:57: Anyone got plans for Sunday? Weather looks like it could be OK. I was thinking of trying to get to Johnstown castle in the hope there's still some colour in the trees if there's no location earmarked for the weekend

Comment by Jan Ryan on October 23, 2015 at 10:39: Unfortunately I won't be able to join you. Enjoy the coffee and cakes.

Comment by Plein Eire Administrator on October 23, 2015 at 9:28: If you are free this morning, why not drop in to Clint at Karoo for a coffee and a bite. The SE Plein Air show of local paintings opens today.

Comment by Sheila Mac Nally on October 12, 2015 at 22:27: Great, thanks for setting it up Tony, I'll try and get there for a coffee on the 23rd

Comment by Tony Robinson on October 12, 2015 at 19:45: Pop in to see some fresh paintings of Killinick, Wexford. They will be on show at Karoo Farm Shop & Cafe from 21st October with a coffee & pastries opening on Friday 23rd from 11am - 12.30pm. The paintings are produced by local artists who are members of South East Plein Air. If you don't find one you like, there's always chocolate cake!

Any further paintings of Killinick intended for display need to be handed in ready-to-hang at Spectrum Art Shop by Friday 16th October. Thanks.

Comment by Dick Donaghue on October 9, 2015 at 18:45: Hi Y'all we are going to Tintern Abbey this Sunday. Will be there at 11 am. The site says the tea room is open.
