February 2025 Paint Out
by Your Paint-Out Team |
Paint Out - Saturday, February 8, 2025 9:00 am -12:00 pm SANTA BARBARA TRAIN STATION |
We will be painting in February at the Santa Barbara train station. On the back side of the station is a small green area with views of the station, up and down the tracks, the mountains behind and the surrounding neighborhood.
We will meet in this green space across from the Santa Barbara Beach Hostel at 134 Chapala St. 93101. The hotel actually faces West Yanomami St. between Kimberly Avenue and Chapala Street. Parking is also available on the front side of the station with entrances from Montecito Street and State Street.
We hope to see you there.
THE JOY OF SCAPE PAINT OUTS By Jerry Martin One of the great perks of being in SCAPE is having monthly collegial paint outs with like-minded nice people. If you haven't been to one, you will be hooked once you do! It is always fun to paint in new and interesting locations of urban-scapes, landscapes and seascapes. We meet at a location of scenic beauty often chosen in conjunction with an upcoming show. Whether you are experienced with plein air painting, interested in taking photographs or perhaps drawing for use in the studio later, or just want to share being in natural settings with others, it is worth checking out. We have enjoyed gathering at Naples with ocean bluffs, agricultural land and mountains; a private organic farm in the Santa Ynez Valley near Buellton; Lake Carneros; an historic adobe and farm on the Gaviota coast, Arroyo Hondo Preserve; and a hilltop avocado ranch in the foothills. We like to explore new venues, classic locations, and beautiful sights. There are certain paint outs that require a reservation as they are being held on private land or lands managed by one of our beneficiaries such as EDC: Coal Oil Point, Sedgwick, Salt Marsh. As a SCAPE member if you have access or live in a spot that offers an enticing view and would accommodate around a dozen painters to set up, please contact Filiberto Lomeli or Jerry Martin. We would all much appreciate new ideas and new locations. REMINDERS WHEN ATTENDING PAINT OUTS Release of Liability: Please remember to always sign the Release of Liability at a Paint Out. Look for Jerry, Fred or Fil, or whoever else may be in charge of the Paint Out. What to Bring Bring sunscreen, a hat, maybe an umbrella, and a water bottle so that you can stay comfortable and hydrated throughout the day. | PAINTOUT COMMITTEE ![]() Jerry Martin, Chair Filiberto Lomeli, Co-Chair Fred Powell, Committee Member |
