Hi painters - Below are the locations for the Denver area paint outs in August.  

I often receive information about painting opportunities you or others in the group might be interested in.  I will include summaries in my monthly email as long as I receive them by the 15th of the month.  Here's what's going on this month:

PAAC Denver painter Cab Baldwin has been in touch with Joy & Wilde Redstone Art Gallery in Redstone, Colorado.  They will take pictures and drawings and contribute the normal artist share of proceeds to breast cancer research. Cab is cleaning out his basement and taking the gallery a load later this summer.  He is happy to take any other contributions from our group.  No paperwork and no hassles.

PAAC Boulder oil painter Dave Mayer is organizing a paint out to Northern or Southern California in October.  He invites 4-5 painters to come along.  If you are interested, contact Dave at david@dwmayer.com.  You can find out more about Dave on his website at www.dwmayer.com.

Pikes Peak area has 2 upcoming events plein air painters might be interested in. 

1. The Peak Art Adventure is starting today, but artists can register to paint through August 1. The event is accessible to everyone.  For more information go to https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdTUF1ZQIbqRoGZpbHzD_NymAXTc9zngQzEYRo0hbYNe-KVKw/viewform
