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

Louise none of us painted last week, bitter cold and wet and windy :-(.

Comment by Michael McGuire on April 17, 2015 at 16:38: Do you want me to send a group message, Jan, that you want to have another go at the TIntern event this Sunday, since it was a washout last week?

Comment by Louise Treacy on April 17, 2015 at 15:39: Oh I thought you were there last week?

Comment by Jan Ryan on April 17, 2015 at 15:37: Would love to paint in Baginbun another time but I feel that as I have never painted at Tintern I need to give it a go first :-)

Comment by Louise Treacy on April 17, 2015 at 15:14: I think weather is to be good alright yes I'd be up for that anyway if I amigetting out at least I know I will have lots to paint oh yeah there is a kind of event down at hook on sat and sun 25 26 th met a lady organising it ask Trish in spectrum she has t.D poster, I won't be here Or I would have gone.

Comment by Michael McGuire on April 17, 2015 at 15:04: What about meeting in Fethard and maybe painting in and around my favourite headland, Baginbun, if the weather is good. There's Neville's Pub in the village which always does good lunches as well as a few cafes, so toilet facilities nearby anyway. The headland is very similar to Hook Head, but more spectacular, if anything. But I'm happy to paint anywhere really.

Comment by Louise Treacy on April 17, 2015 at 14:46: As usual Annie If I head that way Sunday it will be a bit further to hook or baginbun.Tinterm just does nothing for me. Grey grey and more grey, don't like the place at all. I did drop in to the place last Sunday mm my way to hook but no sign of any of ye. It was probably before any of ya got there, around 10.15 BUTit was well worth goin mm to hook cos it was spectacular with the storm.
