Plein Air Paint Out: Painting the Vintner’s Realm
GRAND ISLE, Vermont (July 20th, 2013) – Welcome to the 1st Annual: Plein Air Paint Out: Painting the Vintner’s Realm! This is a Lake Champlain Islands’ art and wine connection, to be held on July 20th, 2013, that is sure to be the talk of the summer. The Paint Out will take place at East Shore Vineyard in Grand Isle, Hall Home Place orchard and cafe in Isle La Motte, and Snow Farm Vineyard, in South Hero. The day will conclude at Grand Isle Art Works in Grand Isle.
Here is your chance to visit the Lake Champlain Islands for the very best the summer has to offer: lush vineyards and orchards with spectacular lake and mountain views! Artists will be assigned to a winery/orchard. Once there, artists will paint the scene of their choosing. Each artist will identify their painting area with signage for the event, making it easily seen by the day’s attendees.
Vineyards/orchards are encouraged to offer tastings of their specialty wines throughout the day! There should be much browsing and sampling of the fruit and the brush. During the painting hours of 10:00-3:00, visitors (and painters) can plan to experience the sensory pleasures of sight and taste – art and wine!
In the afternoon, artists will bring their framed finished pieces from the day to Grand Isle Art Works for the Palette to Palate Celebration and Art Sale which will take place from 4:00-7:00 pm on the gallery grounds.
