How about opening up a Group page on this site for Art Alfresco, Barbara?
Its free of course, existing members can avail of it as a way of posting and keeping in touch and new members can join it, too. You can decide when setting up a group page whether it is to be open or screened membership. I recommend 'open' but it is up to the group concerned.
I'm sure you can come up with a little painting - perhaps a table and still-life under the sun to illustrate such a catchy title.
In the coverage of this site,we have a gap in the Belfast area generally - at least in terms of a group. But we do have a number of members from Coleraine to Newry and I am acutely aware they are not catered for. I've even thought of changing the title of our site, in case it might be off-putting - it seemed catchy at the time...but of course we welcome and have members from across the world.
But it remains an issue, or at least an omission and the longer it remains unresolved, the more likely it may become an issue. So I would very much like to see Art Alfresco as the first group to join Plein Eire and cater for artists of the North East and I sincerely hope you will consider this invitation.
Hi Barbara, re your comment on Shades of Moynalty, I have a weakness for graveyards even though it doesn't make good commercial sense. There is a lovely little one in the heart of Cork City if you ever find yourself in the locality. It contains the tomb of Nano Nagle and graves of her nuns - from 18th century. Some of them were only teenagers. The headstones are simple and in orderly rows. But some of them seem to be huddling together and whispering to each other and gossiping. A very peaceful place in Friar St./Barrack St area. (I did a painting from photos etc - and sold it - eventually.)
