Art in the Open 2010

This August Bank Holiday weekend saw myself and more than one hundred other plein air painters flock to Wexford town for its third annual Plein Air painting festival. This year it was bigger and better then before. On Friday and Sunday enthusiastic painters were dotted around Wexford town, while on Staurday the painters invaded the picturesque town of Enniscorthy. The efforts of the weekend culminated in a most impressive exhibition in Greenacres gallery, which opened on Monday. There almost five hundred people gathered to admire and marvel at the standard and variety of work that was produced in the course of three short days. It was an amazing experience, and while I wasnt fortunate enough to win a prize, I did make an appearance in Tuesday's Irish Times! http://www.irishtimes.com/newspaper/features/2010/0803/1224276085928.html
