Shows and Events
General Meetings
Watch for upcoming meetings! We have some exciting ideas for the coming months.
Paint Outs
We’ve got a new series of paint-outs for you. With these locations, it’s easy to maintain social distancing while still enjoying the camaraderie of other artists. If you’re new to plein air, this is a good opportunity to give it a try. You don’t need a fancy set of equipment to start; chances are you already have enough. If you have questions about equipment or the painting process, just write back and we’ll have one of our plein air artists call you to help you out! Contact Tom Frey at t.frey@sbcglobal.net for questions and to RSVP. Carpool coordination has been temporarily suspended.
Remember that masks are required in open spaces where there is a risk of close contact, so please bring your mask just in case it’s needed.
3CPS June Paint Out
Our next Paint Out will be June 3rd, 2022, at the home of Terry and Janis Packer, in Arroyo Grande. They are friends of Lia. Directions are given below.
There are several turns necessary to get to their place so our sign will be out. There is room for about 8 cars so carpool if possible. Remember to bring masks in case Covid situations warrant the use. As usual, rain and/or exceptionally windy/cold weather cancels the event. The forecast will be monitored and mentioned again in the reminder. A restroom will be available. Please inform Tom (t.frey@sbcglobal.net) if you plan on attending.

Upcoming Online and Outdoor Workshops
Coming in July an exciting onlinw demo by Teresa Saia.
IN THIS DEMONSTRATION TERESA WILL HELP YOU TAKE YOUR LANDSCAPES TO A POWERFUL NEW LEVEL. TERESA WILL DEMONSTRATE HER LOVE FOR LIGHT AND MOOD WITH THE OVERALL FOCUS: TO BUILD A BETTER LANDSCAPE.
Teresa will focus on the basics for creating dramatic, dynamic, timeless landscapes: value, composition and simplifying shapes into a strong design. Color relationships, edges, temperature of light will be discussed, as well as the application of value studies for a strong start and atmospheric perspective for a more dynamic statement in your paintings. There will be time for questions and answers during the demonstration and afterwards. No matter what level you are, Teresa enjoys helping you build your skills set to reach a new level in your work.
