During the week of Oct. 6 to 13, you will see artists painting the Ocracoke landscapes, beaches, Silver Lake and historic architecture.
“Plein air” means they paint outside and not from photographs.
The artists travel to Ocracoke every October for a retreat, coming from Wilmington, Jacksonville and Norfolk to explore, paint and enjoy camaraderie, friendships and talents. This year’s artists include Ann Hair, Barbara Bear Jamison, Sue Bark and Jenny McKinnon Wright.
The artists will show and sell their work from 3 to 6 p.m. Friday, Oct. 11, at their rental house at 31 Creek Rd.
The artists will donate a portion of their sales revenues to an Ocracoke nonprofit.
