When: there are number of meetings in May 2014. All of them, includes weekends, will be running in morning hours , 9:00-12:00, in one of Ramat Gan parks. You can join us on daily base or to take a serie of meetings (2 days or more) - for creating more solid and valuable work.

Description:
It's astonishing blossom of Jacaranda trees that beginning right now and will continue for few weeks during mid-May. Good reason to hurry and don't miss this great opportunity of painting outdoors.

Materials: choice of materials is up to participator, I suggest to work in the way you are familiar with, as plein air painting itself  is challenging enough. However, the demonstration will be shown in oils, so oil/acrylic painters definitely will learn few technical tips.
