A note from Scott Boyle and the NC Museum of Art.
Hi Painters,
I received an email from Michelle Harrell of the NC Museum of Art about their upcoming Exhibit “American Impressionist: Childe Hassam and the Isles of Shoals” during May of 2016. The Museum is in the planning to have a plein air paint out in conjunction with the Exhibit. Michelle has forwarded to us a poll to gather information on our experiences with past paint out events to help them in their collaborative efforts.
Below is information from the Museum and the Link below for the Poll. Please take 5 minutes to complete the poll.
Thanks,
Scott Boyle
North Carolina Museum of Art Paint Out Poll
The North Carolina Museum of Art (NCMA) is planning a series of plein air programs in partnership with Jerry's Artarama for May 14, 2016 to coincide with the spring exhibition American Impressionist: Childe Hassam and the Isles of Shoals. In addition to public programming for the general audience, we seek input from our state's plein air artists in planning these programs to meet their needs and interests. We estimate this poll will take about 5 minutes to complete.

Mudheads and Hot Dogs... OOPS! Paint Out August 30th...
WHAT: OOPS! August 2015 Paint Out / Cook Out... organized by Bernie Rosage.
WHEN: Sunday, August 30, 2015 from Noon until... Model poses from 12:30 to 4pm with breaks at 30 minute intervals. We will collect a donation for the model.
WHERE: Bernie's House, 414 Brentwood Ave. (near Downtown) Jacksonville, NC 28540.
DIRECTIONS: Just off of Johnson Blvd near the bike trail along Marine Blvd in town. Simply set your GPS for 414 Brentwood Ave. Jacksonville, NC 28540
WHY: Simply put... we LOVE gathering with like minded artists and painting from life!
THERE'S MORE: We are having a cookout after we paint! Bernie and Tami will provide the hot dogs and buns and those coming can bring a side dish and drinks.
What the heck is OOPS and how do I join the FUN?
There are plenty of beautiful trees and homes at and around Bernie's house for the landscape painters... BUT... we will have a live model who will pose for us outside in natural light from 12:30-4pm. Bernie will share what he learned at the John Ebersberger workshop he attended this summer. John was a student of Henry Henshe at the Cape Cod School of Art. Henshe was a student of Charles Hawthorne... founder of the school. Bernie will work in the Cape Cod style of doing a "mudhead" but artists can paint in any style they'd like. If you choose to paint a mudhead you will need plenty of color, palette knives, and a stiff support. If you choose to paint the model we are asking for a donation for their service.
Check this link out for some history of the Cape Cod School!

Newbies welcome... all mediums and skill levels... simply show up with your gear and be prepared to have fun!
No worries... there are NO art-snobs in our group!
Just bring a side dish and fellowship with us at the cook out too!

2. Student conduct must be of superior quality at all times.
3. Each family will be responsible for the transportation of their student to and from all sessions.
4. On Saturday, a short lunch break will be scheduled and all students are required to stay on campus. Lunch (pizza, subs, etc) will be served in the cafeteria at no cost for students. Students are permitted to bring bag lunches.
Parents are encouraged to attend the closing ceremony at 3:15 in the Earl Taylor Performing Arts Center to allow students to share their work and receive certificates. Students will be dismissed at the conclusion of the ceremony.
