Hi Lynda - we must be friends now on several virtual platforms - we'll have to stop meeting like this!! John - note no comments about Jane Eyre being the first outdoor female painter.
Thanks for befriending me. Just read through the vibrant 'Group Challenges' discussion you began on Plein Eire West - Some good responses. I hadn't spotted it before now. I think it is a feature of plein air in Ireland that there is a great variety and freedom to paint your own way. In the USA, where Plein Air is organised to a great extent with many competitions and awards and most events are for 'selected artists only', you get some fantastic work, but it does tend to be very similar.
Somehow, I doubt you are easily put out of your stride. Keep up the good work and do go ahead with that Moycullen Paint-Out.

Great pictures, I think the hay fever inducing painting of the boat was well worth it!!
