We would like to thank the FW Artist Guild for joining us June 27th as a market day sponsor. They will have various artists set up around the ball diamond painting and one booth will be set up to sell items made by various local artists. Plan for your day to take a walk in the park.
Plein air painting is about leaving the four walls of your studio behind and experiencing painting and drawing in the landscape. The practice goes back for centuries but was truly made into an art form by the French Impressionists. Their desire to paint light and its changing, ephemeral qualities, coupled with the creation of transportable paint tubes and the box easel—the precursor to the plein air easels of today—allowed artists the freedom to paint “en plein air,” which is the French expression for “in the open air.”
We’re still here! Join us at the ball diamond and hit a home run for your weeks grocery list. We even have pet food, just like this raw milk.
