There is an art to painting outdoors.

   Painting outdoors offers the pleasure of working in the midst of Mother Nature. It also brings its share of challenges. Light and reflections are constantly changing,  as leaves, water, and flowers are in motion, To work “en plein air” or in the open air, as John Singer Sargent and Claude Monet, to name only two, chose to do has intrigued artists through the years.

 On April 25th, 33 renown plein air painters will set up easels outdoors at Museo Benini and paint canvases that will be exhibited for sale the following Friday at the Lakeside Pavilion on the Colorado River in Marble Falls.

 The Highland Lakes Creative Arts, a non-profit organization of artists and arts lovers in the Marble Falls area have organized events from April 23rd through April 29th centered around this annual Paint the Town event.

The  VIP reception and exhibition Friday night (a ticketed event)  features the completed works  of 33 painters  and will reveal the 2023 winners as selected by Judge Charlie Hunter, (www.charliehunter.art) as well as sculpture by three renown sculptors,  live music, refreshments and live auction excitement.
