The Forgotten Coast Plein Air Event 2014

Unforgettable Plein Air Event!

Five artists friends with a passion for painting, a lovely house on St. George Island, FL, great seafood, lots of great painters to observe and perfect weather were just the right ingredients for an unforgettable week at the Forgotten Coast Plein Air Event, 2014.  The area is eye candy for the painter.  You can't believe how many intriguing and varied sites there are here to capture on canvas.  Behind the scenes of this well designed event, is master organizer, Joe Taylor and his staff.  They work extremely hard  every year to make this one of the country's most outstanding plein air events.  Joe and his troop of volunteers are already at work planning for 2015.  Come join us!  You will love it!
