June Show at the Southbury Public Library




Ellie Boyd paints along with Brian Blood

Brian Blood, nationally recognized landscape painter, demonstrates step-by-step instructions for creating a California landscape in his video “Studio Painting Secrets” by Liliedahl Video Productions, from the Southbury Public Library collection.  Southbury resident and artist Ellie Boyd is painting along, to submit to the “Inspired Art” show in June.

"Inspired Art" -- A Different Kind of Show

In June 2018, the Southbury Public Library will host a different kind of art show.  Artists 18+ years old are invited to check out one or two art instructional DVD's from the collection of 150 videos, and either paint along with the instructor, or be inspired to apply new knowledge gleaned from one of the DVD's to create new art of their own.  Videos can be checked out for two weeks at a time.  The library has the show registration forms.

Take a look at the collection in the Southbury Public Library, and check out a video.  Here is a PDF with the titles/artists you will encounter.   http://bit.ly/ArtInstructionVideosUpdate

Dreaming About Plein Air?


Diane Dubreuil and Ellie Boyd painting in Maine.




Now is the time of year to offer up ideas for POP painting locations/dates for the 2018 schedule.  The group paints together about once/month.

If you have a good spot you'd like to share with a group of 2 to 10 painters, preferably with parking and an on site bathroom, please email pomperaugoutdoorpainters@gmail.com.

Thank you,
Ellie Boyd (203) 429-4356
