Saturday - October 2, 2010 - 8:00 a.m. to 4:00

You are Invited to the 6th Annual
Oil Painters of America Great Paint Out
with world known artist, Lori Putnam

Great Paint Out -- Tennessee Location
Tennessee's location will be at Triple L Ranch on Bedford Creek Road in Fernvale (Williamson County)

EVERYONE WELCOME!   (That includs all PAN!)
(You do not have to be a member of any organization -- all levels welcome)

Saturday, Oct. 2nd, 2010 - 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. (come for any part)

Group photo near the original check-in point at noon. Please attend if possible.

If you have never painted the ranch, or even if you have, you won't want to miss this. The Lee family tells me there will be baby calves about that time! Rolling hills, creek, horses, vistas, barns, cows... BEAUTIFUL landscape.

No pre-registration necessary. However, when you arrive at Bedford Creek Road, please follow the signs to a "check-in" point marked by balloons. There you will find information about getting around the ranch, what there is to paint, where the restrooms are, mark where you think you may be so others can meet up with you, and some bottled water. Even if no one is sitting at the check in station when you arrive, please sign in so we can report back to OPA a head count for the day.

Bring a lunch, drinking water, and bug spray.

If you have questions, please email lori@loriputnam.com
Phone: 615-512-0929 if you need more information.

Happy Painting!
