Plein Air Networking Site and YouTube video
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=td_V03L1bCA
This is a marketing piece made by Don (ald) Maier who created a networking site called www.pleinairartists.ning.com for Plein Air artists.
It's a great watch because it reinforces what you already know .... that there are many different ways to express oneself and our individual reaction to the world around us. There are mediums galore and each one of us has a style (spirit?) of our own.... it appears when we make our marks on paper or canvas, in clay or cloth, in recycled metal or silver or yarn, beads, etc.
Now, go make more of your marks!

Quality Member Show brings new Opportunity to AOTA members
The Pole Creek Golf Course Clubhouse and restaurant, Bistro 28, have said they would like to continue showing our work there. They want pieces that would enhance their natural setting. Pieces will rotate as they sell and as the seasons change. They are not looking for work by the next Picasso or images and framing in an ultra modern style, but rather those works that focus on the beauty of the natural world around us. Landscapes, floral and wildlife in any media as well as nature and scenic photography come to mind. What do you think would enhance their setting? Call Nigel Conners to find out when you can show him your work. He’ll decide which he can place. All pieces should be available for sale, so have prices and titles for your work. (And SASEs, those self-addressed stamped envelopes with receipts, including your phone number, for each piece, too!)
Contact Nigel, Bistro 28’s manager, on their direct line 887-9797 to arrange a meeting.
Additional Info:
Bistro 28 will be open for dinners Thursday through Monday during the winter.
Matted and framed prints are acceptable.
ART OUT of THIN AIR works will be identified with a special label.
ART OUT of THIN AIR will have a small sign posted with information about our group.

August Get-together
Our next get-together will be Wednesday, August 26th at the Elkhorn Art Gallery in Winter Park at 5:30 pm. We'll get to enjoy the artwork of Stacy Peterson and Cydney Springer - their show, "Artists to Watch" show will have opened on the 21st.
Gary Coblentz, co-owner of Elkhorn, is now selling art supplies and would like to know what the local artists want him to stock. We thought this would be a good time to talk about a large group order. Gary will work with us on price - so please think about what supplies you'll be needing in the near future. It's great to have a local place to go to for art supplies.
Elkhorn Art Gallery is located just behind the 7-Eleven in Winter Park.
See you then,
Patty
