Fernvale
5141 Bedford Creek Rd. (approximate address)
Franklin, TN
We've been invited to paint with renowned plein air painter, Lori Putnam and her visiting artist friend from Australia, Georgia Mansur. (Georgia, celebrated as well, is heading up a paint Australia event for 2011.) You'll be painting with some of the best. Lori picked a beautiful farm site on the West side of Franklin.
The painting will begin about 8:00 a.m. and last all day. Come when you can.
Coming from West Nashville/Bellevue/Bellemeade area:
Take Hwy. 100 to Hwy. 96 east toward Franklin.
Go 1 mile and turn right onto Old Harding Rd.
Coming from Franklin:
Take Hwy. 96 W; go about 12 miles; turn left at Old Harding.
Once you are on Old Harding:
Go 2 miles and turn left at Bedford Creek Rd.
There is a sign that says LLL Ranch.
You can paint anywhere along Bedford Creek Rd. There are horses, cows, distant views, barns, creek, goats, vistas, etc. To meet the group and learn about the lay of the land, and where the restrooms are, follow Bedford Creek Rd. about 1/4 mile to a green sign on the right that reads E. Miles Construction and drive DOWN that driveway to the creek area. You will see my red Jeep Liberty. I will be there at 8:00 a.m., or call my cell at 615-512-0929.
There are restrooms, but NO RESTAURANTS or places to get food and water. It is supposed to be very hot so bring lots of water!!! Bring a picnic lunch to enjoy on your own schedule, or meet the group around 12:30, at the second group of barns, 1/8 mile past the above mentioned area, on the right.
Coming from other locations, here is a link to the map: http://maps.google.com/maps?hl=en&client=firefox-a&channel=s&q=bedford+creek+rd+franklin+tn&ie=UTF8&hq=&hnear=Bedford+Creek+Rd,+Franklin,+Williamson,+Tennessee+37064&gl=us&ei=BlINTJ3iIYyhnQecv4DYAw&ved=0CBMQ8gEwAA&ll=35.96328,-87.044678&spn=0.089201,0.192432&z=13
Rain Update:
Just so you know, there is only a 20% chance of rain Sat. If there is off and on drizzle, we will still paint out doors, under shelter of barns, etc. If, however, there is a total washout, Saturday we will paint at SouthGate Studio at The Factory and I will provide still lifes for those of you who are still interested in joining us.
A small donation to SouthGate in exchange for the use of their space would be appreciated.
