Plein Airs in June/July/August
Upcoming Plein Air:
Painting (Plein-Air) in Paramin
Saturday 9th August (weather permitting)
9am-1pm
What an awesome location. On the top of the hill which, on one side, overlooks Shodo Island and the North Coast and on the other side, looks over the Maraval Valley to Port of Spain and a vista of the Northern Range.
This Plein-Air replaces the YARRA BRIDGE trip as we have been generously offered the use of the house inset as our base for the morning(mal d'estomac (bad belly) in bella vigi-patois for beautiful view) . Even if it rains, we will have the shelter of this house and can perhaps do a painting of rain. Remember, the earlier we get there and start, the most productive you'll be and this great location.
This is a "landscape" plain-air and artists should walk with their easel/drawing board, paints, water and brush well and canvas to paint on. You should also bring a light refreshment for yourself (or to share
See you on Saturday

AUGUST Sunday 10th noon-5pm YARRA RIVER (Bridge) (5 hours)
An afternoon of painting on and around the bridge over the Yarra River on the North Coast. Lovely reflections in the river below.
This is a remote location so bring your little cooler, easel, chair and materials keeping in mind thesensitivity of the environment.
* At the start of the 2008-2009 new school term in September, I propose that we visit schools and paint there in lieu of our weekend plein air sessions to encourage students to work with artists and to allow them a link to the happenings of the ASTT in preparation for the November show.
*THIS ENTIRE SCHEDULE IS SUBJECT TO CHANGE as sometimes venues may
have other commitments on the days listed.
