Hi John
Sadly I'm going to have to miss the Roundstone paint up! I have another book fair to attend. I'll be watching out for details of the next outing ...... enjoy Roundstone! Lynda
Aha! We've decided not to do the book fair on Sunday :-) If all goes well in the household, I'll be joining you in Roundstone! :-) :-) :-) (Am I smiling broadly enough do you think?)
Lynda
Funny ... I posted a post here yesterday but it's disappeared! Anyway, I remember saying what a glorious day we had in Roundstone and how lovely it was to meet friends, old and new. I'd really like to hear artists' viewpoints on their feelings during a group painting sesssion, so if you get a moment, please write a sentence or two on my discussion post. Big thanks! And thanks too to John for a great Roundstone day - and you're still there you lucky man. Love to Sheila. Lynda
Am just back from a very demanding (!) 10 days in Spain painting with my Back Lane Painter colleagues and John Sheehan a good friend who knew O Grove town well.
It was fantastic. I will get to organising the next PleinPaint day immediately - need to talk to Frank Sanford who suggested painting down Kinvara way - otherwise will do another Cong day like Venetia suggested. John
Hi John,
Unfortunately I wont be able to go on Sunday, am off to Amsterdam for a few days. The good news is that Im going to be around Mayo quite a bit in the next couple of months, so hopefully we make another paint out soon...thanks though for getting everyone together, again!
Life a bit too hectic for me at the moment John ... I think I may need to sleep a lot on Sunday. Apologies for that ... but I may have some news to impart pretty soon .... will let you know when it happens. :-) Take care. Lynda
If the weather is kind, I'm going to try and make it for an afternoon session in Roundstone - even if I need to bring Mum for a bit of an airing at the same time. I need to paint!
Hi John. I won't make it tomorrow unfortunately. I have to say I really enjoyed the last few outings. Hope you get some good weather for your painting classes in Roundstone. Patricia
Hi, Are there any thoughts of a pleir air day soon, is it getting too cold for you all? I am afraid I sadly missed july, august and september. If anyone has any ideas?
bye for now, Noelle
Hi Noelle I've just a few minutes ago finished my last public workshop for 2010 ! And I was thinking last weekend that no-one had enquired about plein air days.
Yes I think we should try for one more in 2010 anyway - so watch this space next week and I'll suggest sometime, somewhere! John
Hi John, I was thinking Kylemore estate would be lovely some time, and the cakes in the coffee shop are superb- this is quite important!,How about the 24th?
bye for now,Noelle
Hi Noelle I can't make 24th as I'm teaching in west Clare Sun/Mon next - but how about Saturday next 23rd? I like the sound of Kylemore as a meeting up point - the car park at 11.00 am I'll put it up as an event and hope you can make it.
John
Hi John , I can make it, I was at the gardens last saturday and they are fabulous at the moment, there are beautiful autumn colours here and along the walk to the gardens. Its 12 euro to get in to the gardens but I might phone up to see if they would let us in at a special rate. Theres another coffee shop up at the gardens with panoramic views that would make the most fabulous indoor studio, I could ask about that too.See you there in any case I hope.
best wishes, Noelle
Met Eireann says:'Tomorrow, Saturday will be a cool showery day. Many of the showers will be heavy with a risk of hail and thunder during the afternoon. Temperatures will range 9 to11 degrees and winds will further veer northerly moderate to fresh in strength.'
Maybe tomorrow is a bad idea. I may be in the area any way if anyone is there and Met Eireann is wrong (Fingers crossed!) text me. How about the following weekend? I'll re check this later.
Hi Joe , I have asked john to forward you my number, if the weather is ok i will go. hopefully see you there so. I have silver 01 box like A140 mercedes. bye for now , Noelle
Just to say I'm off to Kylemore Abbey this morning - 11.00 in car park - hope to see a couple more Westers there! my mobile is 087 2597682 in case you're looking for me. John
Sorry I didn't manage to get to Kylemore, hope you all have a lovely day - nice and sunny at the moment, fingers crossed. Busy painting walls before family inundation next weekend!
I'm looking forward to going to Roundstone tomorrow painting. it will be my first outing with the group and my first time in Roundstone. So if you guys see someone looking lost.....it's me.
Oh what a pity, i did'nt see this email, I would have loved to have gone. Is there any possibility of the message being texted? Are there any technical wizards out there who can make this website text too. Also, can we go out again soon on the next warm sunny saturday, Maam Bridge might be nice...mountains, a river, Nimmos house( a charming pub/cafe), boats.
Noelle - Hi - it wasn't the same without you! I thought you'd check your emails daily. I agree with your suggestion re Maam Bridge - tho the proximity of the pub could be distracting! I'll be in touch again soon with more details, and no, I don't know how to do it by texting! Open to technowhizzards tho. J

I missed the day out too, but would be delighted to go if you're planning one this coming sunday (13th March) or the one after (20th).
Noelle - did you take a month off work? Weere you painting?

Sorry I missed it too...the only morning I didn't check my e-mail !
Maam Bridge sounds like a good idea.
The area around Ballinahinch river with the old Station House is a suggestion for another time (no pub to retreat to though) just a Castle!
