Who We Are

The Plein Aire Painters are a group of seniors who like to paint. The members are students and friends of Susannah Vandyke, and most have taken the oil painting classes she teaches at the Lousiville and Lafayette Senior Centers.

On Wednesday mornings during the summer, Susannah organizes outings to scenic local areas where we gather and spend the morning pursuing our painting and socializing.

Since most of us are slow painters, we seldom complete our paintings during the time we have. Thus the photos - to remind us of the area so we can finish the work later indoors.

 

 
 

 

Our Fearless Leader, Susannah

Susannah's Fearless Resume:

"Susannah Vandyke is a great artist with a shady past. Her conscience is clear, but she does have a bad memory. She was once discovered roaming the streets in Vienna wearing only a paintbrush."

"Roses are Red
Violets are Blue
I think I'm Great,
I guess you are too." SV

She loves poetry.
