Artists plan to paint at Green Mountain

NTAC is organizing an informal Paint Out at Green Mountain in Wells Gray Provincial Park on Sept. 13 and you're invited!

North Thompson Arts Council is organizing an informal Paint Out at Green Mountain in Wells Gray Provincial Park on Sept. 13 and you’re invited!

The event will be part of the 12th annual International Plein Air Paint Out, which is being held that weekend around the world.

The term “Plein Air” comes from the French “en plein air”, used to describe painting in the open air. Artists often paint out-of-doors in order to capture the colour, light and general feel of a particular location.

Please join other artists of the North Thompson Valley on Sept. 13, 10 a.m. – 3 p.m. on Green Mountain (36 km up Clearwater Valley Road). Pack a lunch and bring your painting supplies.

This free event is open to everyone; you don’t even have to be a painter.

 

Photographers, writers, artists of all types using any materials – even lookie-loos are welcome!
