What is is that drives the Irish artist to paint? Is it the amazing scenery of Ireland? Or is it the unusual light that I notice in so many plein air paintings done there? My family is 3rd generation…Read on...

I have AT&T.  I am just paying the $30 for international.  That will give me enough minutes to get buy.  Have you checked with your carrier?  I am also getting international texting, $10.  Hope that helps.

Hello from San Francisco Bay Area,
I will be needing a phone while in Ireland (8 weeks) and need to find where to buy one. Anyone know?

You may take your painting(s) with you. Or we can ship unsold ones at cost afterwards. - Or collect them when you come back next year ;-)

Hi Everyone,

I am getting so excited about painting in Ireland.  I was wondering about the show which is part of  the Plein Air event.  We can submit 3 paintings.  I will be leaving the 10th.  Does anyone know if we are required to leave our paintings up for the whole show?  Or can we take them down after a few days.    Not sure how all that works for us people flying in. 

Really looking forward to Ned Mueller's workshop.  Any of you attending?

Hi Lynda,

I'll be coming on my own from the States too. :) So you're not the only one! You will love Ireland. The people over there are very friendly and welcoming. And the country is beautiful! I'm leaving next week for Galway to check out the art festival there before I head out to Wexford. Looking forward to painting with everyone! See you all in a couple of weeks!

Thanks for all the tips on packing, etc! Tony, I'm going to take you up on your offer to have some gear shipped to Spectrum Art. It's way too much of a hassle with security at the airport and I'm paranoid that they'll take something away or something will be damaged! I'll be sending it this week. I hope that's alright with you. Thanks!

Sherry and I are arriving early and heading to the west with one of our destinations being Donegal, coincidentally an ancestral home for both of us. Unfortunately our flight home leaves early on the 8th. Sherry would have loved to have painted and as the Sherpa spouse I could have done more pub research. We are planning to visit Ardmore on the 7th as we wind our way from Wexford to Shannon. I think Sherry has read all of Nora Roberts books multiple times.

Hey Yanks anyone thinking of going to west Ireland? After the event I plan to kick around in the western part of Ireland, Dingle, Kilarney, etc., for a few days of painting. Anyone up for doing the same?  I will be flying out of Shannon.

Thank you Lori,  I had two artist at my house in Crested Butte last night that know you.  Greg Barnes and Jim Wodark.  They think very highly of you.  I am looking forward to meeting you.

Deb, did I ever answer your question about the pochade box? Sorry. I've been out of town a lot. Playing catch up on communication. Let me know if you still need a recommendation.
