PLEIN AIR
CAROLINA...
Welcome to our website
We are an organization of artists who meet
weekly to paint on location at various sites
throughout the Piedmont of North Carolina.
PAC was formed in November 2005 and is
home based at the Waterworks Visual Arts
Center in Salisbury, North Carolina,
NEWS:
1. Due to erratic weather conditions, if it should appear
that we will have "great painting conditions" on any given
day....other than a Friday morning (for example a weekday
or weekend afternoon, or evening...or night!), I will put out
the word about when and where.
2. Friday mornings, if weather does not cooperate, we will
meet at the studio in the Waterworks for an interesting,
educational, session. Plans for these are:
Color theory....Phyllis Steimel
Art History, Flemish Art....Don Moore
Critique session
Bring your problems/questions
Demos
3. When we DO have the opportunity to paint on location,
we plan to have a model pose, on occasions, in the
landscape.
4. We are delighted with our alliance with the Salisbury
Symphony Guild....thanks again to those who created and
donated art!. We are discussing plans to work on Historic
Salisbury sites in conjunction with the Historic Salisbury
Foundation.
Please note: It is the policy of PAC that members will be dropped from the
email list (thus, all notifications shall cease) if you do not participate or
correspond for two months or more. If, of course, you have corresponded
with us and we know that you are still interested, your name will remain on
the list. If you desire to remain informed and wish to participate when
possible, please keep in touch via email. Otherwise it will be assumed that
you are no longer interested and your name will be dropped.

Though we have experienced rough weather
so far this year, we are not wasting any time.
Fridays are opportunities for growth.
This coming Friday, February 12, Jim Taylor
will demonstrate, in graphite, a self portrait.
We will meet at the studio at the Waterworks
at 9:30 AM
On Friday morning, February 5, Don Moore
did a wonderful presentation on Flemish and
Italian art and the symbolisms used in both at
the Waterworks.
Thank you, Don!
