This is a website for artists who paint and draw out in the landscape or would like to try. Many find there is immediacy and a tension in working outdoors from life that can elicit freshness and spontaneity in paintings, qualities often hard to recreate in the studio.

Wexford town will host the first Art in the Open Festival during the August Bank Holiday weekend 2008. Artists of all ages and levels of accomplishment are welcome to participate, there will also be a junior competition. The emphasis is on fun throughout the weekend and will finish with an exhibition and prize giving ceremony.
