Paint Out!!!!

                                                                     Pastel painting by Carol Brooks

Bangor Art Society members begin the summer with a Paint-Out. Thursdays  seem to be the designated Paint-Out day. Hamlin Marina was the site of our first event. President Carol Brooks arrived with breakfast in hand and ready to paint. Other members attending were artist Liz Donald, artist Gail Hipsky and artist Sue Roberts. After painting we broke out our box lunches and had a gab session. Painting Plein Air is so much fun. If you are around on Thursdays and want to paint...leave a comment on this site and I will get back to you.
