Our Organization
IPAP is now into it's 8th year since we started as a
small internet group just after 9-11. It was a time
when there
was a need for reaching out and connecting.
It has grown to represent artists globally. In 2002,
the 1st
WORLDWIDE PAINT OUT was organized.
It continues to be hosted annually by IPAP and unites
artists
in the promotion of plein air painting.
In 2007, IPAP joined with LAI to present the
WORLD TOUR OF CONTEMPORARY
LANDSCAPE ARTISTS touring worldwide.
The goal for IPAP is, and always has been to help
artist members promote their work within their own
region
and on an International scale.

I am considering starting an “enthusiast” newsletter for those who really “get” my art.
This is intended for friends and galleries who want to see new work from the easel.
I only intend to send emails for the paintings that I personally feel really succeeded in
“saying what I saw”. The email will include a small image and a bit of the story that I always add to each work.
If you wish to be included in the “Chadwick Enthusiast” emailing from my palette to your
palate, please respond and I will set it up. As always, all information is confidential.
In addition, I may also start a “Chadwick Collector” mailing for connoisseurs
and galleries who want to see everything.
I would be careful to include you in only the email group of your
choice –Seasonal Newsletter,Enthusiast or Collector so that
you will not receive multiple emailings. Let me know what you think.
The long range forecast calls for fair, spring like
weather and happy faced weather icons.
The “Weather of Ontario” is closer to publication. I will also be
at the opening of the “Algonquin Art Centre” in June with new work.
Warmest Regards and have a Safe Spring,

Following a seven-month-long tour across Italy, Lori Putnam
returns to Nashville to exhibit dozens of fresh
oil studies and paintings. These works represent only
about half of what she created during the journey.
Putnam’s Italian work will be presented in a solo exhibition at HA Gallery in Nashville during the month of
May.
The artist’s paintings have been described as “intelligent,” “confident,” “gutsy,” and “effortless.” She
expresses light with big [brush] loads of
talent so that the viewers may see beauty in something seemingly ordinary.
Putnam's primary purpose for the extended trip was to grow as an artist.
She traveled and painted from one Italian coast to the other and many parts
in between. The artist pushed herself to experiment with her medium as she approached new subject matter
each day. As both artist and instructor,
Putnam believes that more knowledge can be gained by painting from life, whether it is by using a live
model, still life in the studio, or by painting landscapes all’aria aperta (Italian for “in the open air,” also
known as en plein air in French).
Friday afternoon prior to the opening reception, Putnam will present a painting demonstration using one of
her Italian studies for reference. The original study will then be GIVEN AWAY to some lucky registrant
during the opening reception that evening. Stop by the gallery any time to register to win.
In conjunction with the exhibition, Lori Putnam will be teaching several workshops throughout the week.
Please contact the gallery info@hagallery.com
or visit www.loriputnam.com if you are interested.
I'm very happy to announce that the Acadia Workshop Center, located on Mount Desert Island, Maine has
moved to a new location in Bernard. The new pricing has reflects only the workshop fee with lunches
included. The new studio is large, 28 x 40 with color correct lighting and extra sinks.
The art supply store is now housed in it's own separate area next to the studio. Please check out
the schedule
for this season at www.acadiaworkshopcenter.com
Also, I'm setting up the 2010 schedule. Interested instructors should
contact me.

I had a workshop planned for southern England this summer, but
they
are having recessionary problems as well and we're going to put it off
for the year 'til next summer. I have information I need to get to Gail yet,for a
workshop in Maine in
2010...
Planning on two workshops here,one in the area this summer and another in the Marquette, MI area...
as
usual.Working also on my next book, "Learning to Paint Painterly Realism" which will
emphasize of course
the value and importance of the habit of plein air painting...
Painted out with my fourth form art class. Art Society of Trinidad and
Tobago had a paint out this month. It was very good. Will be taking
part in upcoming group exhibition in May.
