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, June 8

This Saturday promises to be warm and sunny. Margorie Kruger has graciously invited MOP to come paint on her property.  She lives in a beautiful rural location off of S. Saginaw Rd. toward Freeland. Margorie paints with the Paint and Palette Club on Monday mornings and was the oil painting instructor at the Midland Community Center.

Take S. Saginaw road past Dow Chemical to Gordonville Rd. Turn right on Gordonville,  go over the river, then turn left on E. River Rd., right on S. Orr Rd., then take the first left onto Sarle Rd.  Marjorie's address is 12720 Sarle Rd.  It's approximately 8 miles from downtown.  Please don't park on the grass.  Park on the side of the road (very little traffic) or on the driveway.

See you there!
