This group is for any artist (experienced to novice) who is interesting in working on art outdoors, whether its easel painting in oil, watercolor, pastels, charcoal/pencil drawing ect. Take your inspiration from the landscape and cityscape, as we meet outdoors at various locations around the Pittsburgh area to work on our individual paintings or projects and enjoy the camaraderie of fellow artists.
