Week 32 October 17 - 24, Martial Cottle County Park, San Jose


Pre-pandemic faithful members joined us at Martial Cottle County Park on a cool, crisp clear morning that turned into a warm autumn day. It was great to see Rich, Bobbi, and Jan along with our masked regulars, Susan BG, Cindy, Helen, Iris, Lisha, Toni, Mary P. Thank you all for joining me for a fine day of painting.  (Alison)


Blog Submission Guidelines

We invite Paintsites' artists to paint or sketch during the week, pick one painting from that week and submit it by Saturday of that week. Here are some guidelines:

  • Include your name, the date and comments about the site or unique media notes.
  • Be creative! Some of your best subjects are in or around your home. You may want to paint from personal photos of your travels.
  • Submissions after Saturday midnight will appear in the following week's blog.
  • One submission per member per week, please.

Paint site Guidelines

Please check the Paintsites website for details including directions and possible cancellations. To keep our members and guests as safe as possible during the COVID-19 era, we must change how we do things. Some of the paint sites have visitor limits. When this occurs we will post the information in paint site details on the SCVWS website. Participants must wear masks and observe the 6 ft. distancing rule. We no longer take photos of paintings on site. Please take your own photo, crop if needed, and submit  to paintsites@scvws.org
