MIDLAND OUTDOOR PAINTERS




Midland Outdoor Painters (MOP) is an informal group of artists who come together to paint "en plein air" and to offer support and get helpful criticism of their work. This blog has been set up to inform participants in Midland Outdoor Painters of recent activities on a weekly basis. The group meets every Saturday, rain or shine from 9AM to about 11AM. You are welcome to join us with any medium; sketchbook, oils, pastels, watercolor, pen and ink, or just to watch. ALL SKILL LEVELS ARE WELCOME. The painting location will be posted here every preceding Thursday by the "location master", a position currently held by Priscilla Olson. She will also email the location to those who choose to be on the MOP mailing list. If anyone has ideas for other places they'd like to paint on future Saturdays, please let Priscilla know by the Wednesday night prior. To be added to the list, enter your email where it says "Follow by Email" or, if you have questions, contact Priscilla at artofpriscilla@att.net

LOCATION FOR SATURDAY, JUNE 2

This Saturday we will meet at the same location as last week:  Chippewassee Park, by the playground and skate park.  See last week's post for driving directions.  It is supposed to be overcast, maybe rainy, and maybe cold, too.  Dress warmly!  We will be near our cars and a picnic shelter in case of rain.   Port-o-johns are nearby, too.  An overcast day is an opportunity to study composition with subtle shifts in color and value, whereas with a sunny day it is compelling to explore the possibilities with light and shadow patterns.  See you soon!
