Bluebells Plein Air
Sunday, May 7, 2017 between 1:00 and 3:00 PM
PLEIN AIR BLUEBELLS (FOR MOTHER’S DAY!)
Mertensia Park,
Farmington
Please plan to join us for our third annual PLEIN AIR BLUEBELLS event at Mertensia
Park. Generally held on Mother's Day we are meeting a week early as the bluebells are likely to be in full bloom by May 7th. (Bethan and I did a check on Saturday, April 29th and found several mertensia in bloom with trout lily, blood root, colt's foot, garlic mustard, May apples, false solomon's seal, violets, and jack-in-the-pulpit). We will provide the paper, paints, pallets,
and brushes to capture your artistic view of the mertansia (bluebells) and
other spring wildflowers along Mud Creek.

Please bring along an easel if you have one and something to sit on if you wish. *
UPDATE: A week prior to our Plein Air this is how the bluebells looked. May 7th should be near peek.
TOO WET FOR PLEIN AIR but plenty of Mertensia and even hot coffee!
