Kansas Group A small group of painters met at Caroline Norton's Studio in Medicine Lodge, KS on October 22, 2011. Then David Vollbracht,OPA led them a few miles to the picturesque Gyp Hills to paint. The weather turned out to be a crisp beautiful October day that allowed the painters to be inspired by the fall landscape while they painted two pictures each.

Paintout Day 1 There were eight of us dedicated stalwart souls last Wednesday at the Great American Oil Painters of America Paint Out. At 8 a.m. the day started out overcast, then became drizzly. Then about 10 ish the heavens opened up. so we decided to continue it next week. Hopefully the weather will cooperate. Some folks came from pretty far away.......Canada and Massachusetts.

Paintout Day 2 We had much better weather for the second segment of the Great Paint Out. Everyone was in high spirits and we even had a professional photographer walk by! Altogether between the two days there were 18 painters participating in the 7th Great Paint Out. Good Show everyone!!!!
