Green Island
Coburg, OR
Have you been looking for a place to paint fall colors? Here is your invitation to explore Green Island, a 1,100-acre conservation property located along the Willamette River, through an artist's lens. Joined by the Plein Air Painters of Lane County, we will experience autumn on Green Island.
Artist-birder-nature watcher Barbara Gleason will offer an introduction to plein air drawing and painting in the landscape from 9:30 to 10 am. Barbara will cover some special supplies and tips that will help you draw and paint outdoors.
After the introduction, McKenzie River Trust staff will lead a brief walk around the property to show you some of the places you can paint. Then spend 4+ hours making art on your own. Please plan for the weather, but in case of rain, a canopy will be provided. We'll come back together at 3 pm to see everyone's work.
