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

MOP LOCATION: Saturday, July 14

St. Charles Park is a ballpark that is skirted by paved trails leading (eventually) to the Chippewa Nature Center.  This particular area has a variety of terrain; some ponds, open grassy areas and many stands of low brush and mature trees.  It begs to be painted - see you there!



Take Poseyville road to St. Charles Dr. like you are going to the Nature Center.


There is additional parking just across Whitman if these lots are filled up.


      The red lines are paved trails.  There are many places to set up just off the trails and away from the traffic.
