SUMMARY:Exhibit Celebration and Artist Talk-The Sound of Rocks and Wind
DESCRIPTION:\nEXHIBIT CELEBRATION AND ARTIST TALK- The Sound of Rocks and Wind\nSaturday, October 4, 2025\n11 am – 12 pm\nFREE\nwith Plein Air PaintOut from 8:30 – 10:30 am\nPlease join us as we celebrate the Sonoran Plein Air Painters exhibit The Sound of Rocks and Wind.  The artist will have a presentation and talk.\nCome out and meet the artists and see the beautiful work from the Sonoran Plein Air Painters as we celebrate The Sounds of Rocks and Wind.\nThe Sonoran Plein Air Painters paint “en plein air,” which translates from French to “in the open air.” There is a unique challenge to painting in this way. The light is constantly shifting, the weather can present difficulties, and all materials, including easels, must be carried to and from the location. Plein air painters embrace these challenges and find joy in the experience of creating art on-site. The Sonoran Plein Air Painters seek out natural settings that offer both physical and atmospheric beauty. At times, these scenes cannot be captured by photographs in a way that conveys the full impression of being there in person. The process of studying a landscape and blending the artist’s impression with careful observation is what leads to the creation of a landscape painting. The creation becomes not only a work of art but also a memento of a fleeting moment in life.\nOn October 4, several of the featured artists will make a public presentation from 11 am until noon in Amerind’s Art Gallery. Before that program, the Sonoran Plein Air Painters will have a PaintOut from 8:30-10:30 am on Amerind grounds. The public is welcome to watch these talented painters at work. The Plein Air painters will be found in the picnic area and the grassy area just north of the Amerind museum main parking lot.\nfor more information visit: Sonoran Plein Air Painters PaintOut ( https://www.sonoranpleinairpainters.com/event-calendar#!event/2025/10/4/paintout-at-amerind-museum )\n*Please remember that if you want to venture out beyond the picnic area or Yucca Park, onto the trails to paint, you must check in with the front desk to fill out a waiver and pay admission.\nFor more information on The Sonoran Plein Air Painters  ( https://www.sonoranpleinairpainters.com/ )\nThis exhibit will be through October 31, 2025\nImage above: Hollyhocks in the Desert, oil, 14 x 11, Greg Wallace\nSquare image: photo of plein air painter’s easel, Cienega Creek, oil, 9 x 12, Judith D.
