World Arts Day Celebration 2022

April 15, 2022 by Toni Kellenberg

  • LPAPA World Arts Day 2022
The Laguna Plein Air Painters Association (LPAPA) invited all of its artist members, patrons, family and friends, and the entire Laguna Beach community, to join its first annual World Arts Day Celebration April 15th! On this day we recognized and celebrated our Laguna Beach community of artists, arts organizations, art educators, art businesses, galleries and all members of our community who participate and support the arts in Laguna Beach. 

LPAPA hosted live art experiences throughout the day with Paint Outs in Laguna Beach and a special community painting created at the LPAPA Gallery (final painting shown below).

LPAPA Paint Out locations took place at Treasure Island Park, Main Beach Park/Promenade, and Heisler Park.

In addition, everyone was invited to be part of the creativity with a visit to the LPAPA Gallery to “make your mark” in celebration of World Arts Day! We had Artists in Residence — Susie Gordinier, Fernando Micheli, and Durre Waseem working on the “community canvas” and guiding visitors throughout the day on the painting in progress laid in by Anthony Salvo! Everyone who stopped by the LPAPA Gallery to “make their mark” for World Arts Day with a brushstroke added to the canvas had the opportunity to enter the drawing to win an original painting!

The LPAPA Gallery is located at 414 N. Coast Highway, Laguna Beach, on gallery row between Jasmine and Myrtle Streets. Gallery hours are Thursday through Monday, 11 am to 5 pm, and by appointment on Tuesdays and Wednesdays.

Thomas Kitts: Mentor Paint Out, April 23rd

April 4, 2022 by Toni Kellenberg

Thomas Kitts LPAPA Paint Out 2022

LPAPA is pleased to present a LPAPA Mentor Paint Out that includes a Painting Demonstration & Critique Session with Signature Artist Thomas Jefferson Kitts on Saturday April 23, 2022 (9:00 am to 2:00 pm) at Irvine Regional Park. 

The focus of this LPAPA Paint-Out will be on your classic California sycamore trees in Irvine Regional Park. We will approach the trees as if they are human figures that bend, tilt, twist, and foreshorten; similar to how the human body turns toward and away from you in a life pose. Your goal is to learn how to create the illusion of volume and space around and within the tree and this approach can be applied to other Southern California vegetation, such as the eucalyptus, pin oaks, and hardwoods.
 
Thomas will demo in oil but this paint-out is open to ALL media. You may work in oil, acrylic, gouache, pastel, or watercolor. You can simplify your effort even more by drawing with a value-based media instead, such as graphite or soft vine charcoal on a medium size paper. (Be sure to bring a sharpener and clean kneadable eraser if you draw.) You will have two hours to paint or draw after the demo. We will then have a short group critique.

Please be prepared to work hard because Thomas promises to cover a lot of ground!

This 5-hour mentor session requires advance registration and will be limited to 15 participants. The park has a $5.00 entry fee to pay when you enter. Further details with the meet-up location will be provided to registrants.

Date/Time: Saturday April 23, 2022, 9:00 am to 2:00 pm
Registration Fee: $30.00 for LPAPA Members or $45 for NonMembers *

Let’s paint and grow together!
