Mike Randall from Channel 7, WKBW, came by Lewiston and the Silo Restaurant to see us painting and inquire about Plein Air. What a lovely report!

Mike Randall of WKBW joined the paintout in Lewiston, but brought his movie camera. Nice to see him again and thankful that he is such a pro at editing our comments.

Hopefully he will bring his sketchbook another time. Here is Mike Randall's drawing of Roy at the Silo, not yet a plein air artist he did this from a film still!

Erie County has amazing parks. Chestnut Ridge has miles of views from the ridge, paths to challenge, old growth forests and acres of space and picnic areas. Here is Peggy Walker's stunning pastel of the forest view from a paintout in the park hosted by Paulette.

Buffalo Marina 6/28/21

Every year, the Marina delivers sunshine, fresh breezes and paintable views in every direction. Our painters were spread out, facing the city or the lake or the apartments or boats. One could paint here every day and find a new view.
