September's Paint Out for OOPS will be our annual involvement with the Washington, New Bern, Carteret, and Oriental Plein Air groups. As usual we will all converge on the centrally located town of New Bern ( anywhere in the downtown historic district). The event will take place Saturday, September 11th and Sunday, September 12th, 2010. There is NO set schedule... simply agree to paint on one or both days to help promote the tradition of plein air painting worldwide.
Here are some links to past events... CLICK HERE...
Mitchell, Bernie, and Stephen will be painting at Cone Manor in Blowing Rock, NC to do their part. They are taking a plein air workshop in the NC mountains.

Plein Air Painters and Cyclists converge on the historic town on New Bern for great causes!
The Eastern NC Chapter of the National Multiple Sclerosis Society announced over 2,400 cyclists and 300 volunteers participated in last weekend’s Bike MS: Historic New Bern Ride. Cyclists left from Union Point Park in New Bern for the successful 21st annual Bike MS September 12-13. Over $1.34 million has been counted to date, and officials project that they are on target to meet their $1.7 million goal.

Also converging on the historic town were plein air artists from Eastern North Carolina participating in the International Plein Air Painter's (IPAP) 7th annual Worldwide Paint Out (WWPO). The paint out is designed to bring recognition to the tradition of painting "en plein air"... the French term for "in the open air". The event brings plein air artists from all over the world who agree to paint outdoors on the same date by organizing events in their local area. Plein air painters from Onslow, Craven, Beaufort, Carteret, Wayne, Pamlico, and Pender counties were present for the special 2 day event.

BREAKING NEWS... This just in about paint out this weekend...
Susan Cheatham is painting in New Bern today and contacted John Hanley who in turn contacted me with this piece of important information concerning our IPAP Paint Out this weekend in New Bern.
Evidently there is a huge bike ride scheduled for New Bern and they have set up carnival tents and camping facilities for the bikers at Union Point Park... this will not present a problem with our painting but it will present a problem with parking at the park. Susan suggests that pliein air painters park at the public library on the corner of Craven and Johnson Streets in the downtown area. We may not be able to get a group photo as planned so please snap a photo or two of you painting so we can submit it to the IPAP's blog chronicling this worldwide event.
Thanks...
See you in New Bern!
