This Paint out was another "first" for SEPA. Duncannon is well known as a tourist destination, with a fabulous long beach. Duncannon Fort has an Art Centre which holds many exhibitions throughout the year . 

Yesterday we again took the opportunity to look around. The working pier was great, though a lot of the small working boats weren't around...hopefully not a "sign of the times". Duncannon beach, Fort, and village had also plenty to paint. 

It was wise to visit this location before the summer rush, though there would still be opportunities to paint on a busy day, maybe a little less comfortable ....

Lunch on the beach wall...

Everyone seemed to enjoy the location. The weather held up nicely, and many paintings were produced.

Nuala Pearce, Marie-Christine O' Brien, Jane Meyler, Michael McGuire, Laura Gibney, Terrence Gillespe, Karen Scannell, Esther Heffernan, Neil O' Keefe, Tony Robinson, Anne Cahill (and nancy). Eleven in all..

Thanks to everyone who could attend
