All ages are welcome and the public are welcome to watch.

Some of the area's most talented outdoor painters will bring their paint boxes and easels to Mandjar Square over these two days. During this time, artists across the globe will be simultaneously painting outdoors – or as the French would say “en plein air”.

Plein air is a French expression which means “in the open air”. Plein air artists seek the quality of natural light and atmosphere outdoors so their work is in direct response to the beauty they find in nature. A variety of mediums is used, from oils through to watercolours and pastels.

If you like plein air painting, you won’t want to miss Plein Air Down Under, Mandurah’s annual outdoor painting festival, on 24, 25 and 26 September.
