June 2013 Paintouts
 We must paint the Rose Festival this week with Dragon Boat races and mini Fleet week. The Broadway Bridge also deserves our attention as it celebrates its 100 anniversary. Keep Painting outside.
Brooks Hickerson , 541-520-1423 cell, (call if you cannot find pleinair painters…we are out there somewhere.)
June 6, Thursday, Find the Fleet Paintout. Canadian and Coastguard ship on the Willamette waterfront between the Burnside and Morrison Bridges (I hope). I plan to be there 10am to 2pm.
June 8, Saturday, Paint the Dragon Boat Races from across the Willamette River near the OMSI. View of Portland in the background. I plan to be there 10am to 2pm. Parking near the OMSI.
June 9, Sunday, Paint the Rose Parade Floats up close and standing still. They will be on display along SW Naito from 11am to 4pm. I plan to be painting from 1-4pm.
June 13, Thursday, Paint down town Lake Oswego at Millenium Plaza Park. The Lakewood Art Festival is next week. I will be there from 11am-3pm.
June 20, Thursday, Paintout at Rose Test Garden in Washington park, Portland, Or. I plan to be there 10am to 3pm.
June 27, Thursday and June 29 Saturday, Paint the Broadway Bridge.
Broadway Bridge opened April 22, 1913.
It deserves a painting. There is a parking lot near 1200 NW Naito or on the street. Good views from in front of the Waterfront Pearl Condos on the Willamette River.
I will be there late from 1-5 pm when the sun will light international orange bridge.
