(Scroll Down for Addresses) The list indicates that the owner of the property has given his/her approval for artists to do a painting of the external premises and that he/she may be an interested purchaser of the piece. If you are an artist interested in painting a specific property and you’d like to connect with the owner, please contact Jenny Heyden at info@pleinairshorewood.com who will send your info to the owner. Thanks!

1. Private Homes: the following Homes (including yard, area, property) are open to paint from the outside, and the owners have expressed an interest (but are not obligated to purchase) a painting of their home(s).

Plein Air Shorewood 
I would like to paint Min’s
Johnna – that sounds great! Of course, you are welcome to paint anywhere in Shorewood. We will alert Lynne Waite (proprietor) that you’ve mentioned her shop here. There are no guarantees that the painting will be purchased. The people on the list of homes and businesses will have first refusal to purchase the paintings, but there is not an explicit agreement between Plein Air Shorewood and the group – homeowners, residents, store owners, etc., the object of your work, to purchase the work.
About the sale: In the Show or Off-Easel:
If you would like to use the painting of Min’s as one of your two works for jurying in the two-day paint, or as your piece for the quick paint (if you do it Sat), then Lynne is welcome to attend the silent auction to purchase the painting on Saturday from 6p.m. to 9p.m. at the Shorewood Public Library.
OR
If you would like sell her the painting “off-easel” outside of the silent auction in Shorewood, the Village will still retain 35% of the sale. This is true with all sales in Plein Air Shorewood, off-easel or juried in the show and sold at silent auction.
Questions please email the committee – info@pleinairshorewood.com.
Is there a list of the homes for painting?
I was wondering about the “sign up” for sites. I’ve never encountered this in previous plein air competitions and would like to know exactly what that means. Are we restricted from painting something that someone has signed up for?
Thank you,
Audrey Dulmes
Hi – these are just suggestions for locations interested in paintings, tha ks!
Yes, it is on the site, thanks!
I am very interested in painting someones home or business. You make take a look at the kind of work that I did this summer at http://judithreidy.blogspot.com/2013_06_01_archive.html
All artists may paint anything within Shorewood limits – painting a home on this list does not guarantee a sale – just highlights homes and businesses where there is an interest amongst the owner or proprietor in a painting.
