PAINT OUT WITH THE CONNECTICUT PLEIN AIR PAINTERS


These happy people are fellow painters at our annual picnic at Harkness State Park.

Our Board, is putting together our paintout schedule for the 2012 season. If you have a suggestion for a good spot to paint, please contact Tom Mayer, Paintout Chair. Every year we try to offer a diverse schedule of paintout locations that will appeal to our far-flung membership.

Many of our members paint on location all year round. But our planned paintouts are scheduled monthly from April through October of each year. We invite CPAPS member and non-members to join us for these monthly paintouts. Painting out together is a great opportunity to mix and mingle with artists who like to paint en plein air.
