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 Michael McGuire on February 22, 2014 at 8:09: Looks like it's going to be a wet day unfortunately.

Comment by Tony Robinson on February 22, 2014 at 0:03: Was hoping to see if there's any bit of craic happening on Sunday but must admit the forecast isn't too promising. If it turns out fine in the sunny S.E. I'll post here where I'm off to and anyone is welcome along.

Comment by Tony Robinson on February 15, 2014 at 23:36: Looks like the Taravie Hotel at the Harbour or, failing that being open, the Fisherman's Wharf across the road from it will be our first port of call for a caffeine hit.

Comment by Tony Robinson on February 15, 2014 at 21:28: The forecast is chilly but bright so I'm heading up to Courtown near Gorey and expect to be there about 11.15am somewhere down by the harbour for a coffee before starting.

Anyone who knows the place better than I do could perhaps recommend a cafe? Hope to see anyone else who wants to get out and paint...

Comment by Tomas King on January 29, 2014 at 8:41: I hope to be able to join you.

Comment by Michael McGuire on January 29, 2014 at 7:26: Yeah, I'd love to, especially since I missed Duncormick.

Comment by Tony Robinson on January 28, 2014 at 23:42: Forecast for Sunday looks okay so I hope to be out somewhere to hunt up some inspiration. Anyone else?
