Members of the Art League over the past months have been painting plein air (in the outdoors) on the historical village property. Paintings displayed will showcase the various historical structures. Works are done in watercolor, acrylic, gouache (opaque watercolor), and oil.
“The artists have been working hard to capture the essence of the historical village in their paintings. Visitors will see a wide variety of styles and subject matter in the show,” said Susan Anderson, chairperson of the show. All artwork is ready to hang and will travel easily.
The exhibit runs February 5 through 24 in the Shore Haven building at the historical village. The art show is open to the public at no charge. Admission to the historical village is available for the regular $10 fee per adult. The exhibit and historical village are open Tuesday through Saturday from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.
The Art League plein air painters meet weekly on Thursday mornings on both Sanibel and Captiva as well as Fort Myers from October to May. The group gathers to paint the local landscape scenery and architecture.
