Oil Painters of America (OPA) Coming to Mariemont to “Paint the Town”
Be on the lookout for a wandering band of painters who are coming to Mariemont on September 13 for a plein air outing. On that Saturday afternoon from 2:00 – 5:00 pm, participating artists will be scattered throughout the Village, capturing its beauty and charm en plein air,
or “in the open air.” “OPA artists are really looking forward to coming to Mariemont and spending some quality time capturing the beauty of this area,” said executive director Kathryn Beligratis. The public is invited to view and purchase these exceptional works of art throughout the exhibition
period. Gallery viewing hours will be Monday through Friday 9:00 a.m. to 5:30 pm; Saturday 10:00 am to 3:00 pm. Closed Sundays.
The outing is part of the Oil Painters of America 2014 Eastern Regional Juried Exhibition, which will be held at the Eisele Gallery of Fine Art, September 12 – October 9. Collectors and art lovers are invited to attend the opening reception on Friday, September 12, from 6:00 pm to 9:00 pm, with the awards presentation at approximately 7:00 pm. Paintings will be available for sale at the opening reception and throughout the duration of the exhibition. Total cash and merchandise awards for this year’s Eastern Regional are $15,000 including a $4,000 Best of Show.
“Oil Painters of America is very excited to be coming to Cincinnati, Ohio for the first time,” said OPA president and Signature member Ken Cadwallader, “We know that the Eisele Gallery of Fine Art has an exceptional reputation and we couldn’t be more delighted to have them host this year’s regional exhibition.” Eisele Gallery of Fine Art is located at 5729 Dragon Way, Cinti, OH. 45227.
This year’s show will feature approximately 100 paintings by some of the best oil painters on the eastern half of the United States, including several notable OPA Master Signature Members, as well as some of today’s most talented emerging artists.
