Brave or Crazy???? March Paint Out ~ Cold and Rainy!

Are we BRAVE or CRAZY????

The March Paint Out in Richlands proved to be challenging to say the least. COLD and WET was the order of the day. Members had to get creative just to stay dry.


OOPS members present... LtoR... Mitchell, Dean, Karen, and Bernie. Pat, Kit, and Patsy also joined in on the fun but are not pictured here.


Patsy's painting of Buck's Service Station... she painted from the back of her van to stay dry!


Dean, Mitchell, and Bernie chose refuge in this gazebo at Venters Park in Downtown Richlands... a GREAT/DRY spot!


Dean choose a BIG panel this month!


Mitchell working...

Bernie weilding a knife...

Maybe next month the weather will cooperate... ;)

No biggie if it doesn't... we'll still paint en plein aire!
