Asilomar / Carmel Paint Out
|
The Ultimate Plein Air Experience! This year SCVWS is offering a painting retreat in the Asilomar/Carmel area on the Monterey Peninsula. This is a great opportunity to get away from it all and spend time painting with your fellow artists. September 22-24, 2011 From oceans to marinas to charming Carmel cottages, it's a great painting opportunity and a wonderful time for members to get to know each other. Paint together at the designated site for the day and share dinner at Asilomar or another place. We will have critique at 3 or 4 pm at the designated site. You can come for just one day. You can camp out on the beach or find other accomodations in the area. Call coordinator Karen Druker if you have question or would like to suggest places to paint: 650-941-8073. Even though there is no fee, you still need to register (for communication, insurance, and so we know how many to expect.) Registration deadline is Sept. 1, 2011
Asilomar Paint Out 2010 A Great Success! Our artists enjoyed the beautiful Monterey Bay Costal area, painting rocks, water and trees, Carmel Mission, the lighthouse, sunflowers and much more. Many chose to visit Point Lobos and found wonderful views. In Carmel Valley, we found a cornfield maze with a huge patch of sunflowers and marigolds planted in the center, and many artists took advantage of Carmel’s galleries and cafes. Saturday’s rain didn’t dampen our spirits! We painted in our rooms with the beautiful views or in our very own conference room with a roaring fire to keep us toasty. Evening critiques rounded off each day's painting, our critique leaders complimenting and helping us solve our problem areas. Join us next September, and have a great painting time!
