OPA Paint Outs

Plein Air Paint Outs have been a tradition at Oil Painters of American since 2005. Paint Outs have experienced rave reviews from members and nonmembers alike who enjoy the many benefits that paint out participation has to offer.

OPA Paint Outs give our members and guests an opportunity to network and socialize with other artists in a plein air setting. Enjoy the beautiful vistas that our members have selected for you to paint. Paint Outs are an outdoor adventure that you won’t want to miss.

Members through the United States, Canada and Mexico are invited to apply to host a Paint Out event during the months of September, October, or November. Applications are taken between March 1 and June annually.

OPA members are invited to host Paint Out events each year. If you are interested in hosting a Paint Out event click here.
