CAPA week, 2025 — pat morss

Posted on by patmorss

A week ago, we were near the end of the 9th annual Cape Ann Plein Air event.

A selected artist painted ‘live’ most evenings, here at Manchester’s 35 Beach restaurant.
We hosted artist Carolyn Lindsey. Restaurant co-owner Matthew Cain watched her paint.
Dinner was excellent. I got up between courses to check on Carolyn’s progress.
At 3/4 dinner and 3/4 painting, that’s me at the left table.
The ‘Quick Draw’ took place Saturday with artists spread around downtown Manchester.
They had only 2 hours to complete their paintings.
Followed by a half hour for framing, then the judging and sale to the public.
For just this event, 100+ guest artists also competed with their own judging.
The 35 registered artists, from all over the country, were judged indoors.
Christine Lashley, with her studio in Old Town Alexandria, VA, took 1st Place.
The Gala was at East Gloucester’s North Shore Arts Association, which was open all weekend for purchase of the week’s art.
Richard Sneary (Kansas City, MO) and Carolyn Lindsey (Cuervo, NM) are the first and the most recent artists to stay with us in Gloucester.

Autumn clouds are so interesting and can change fast.  Walking the Boulevard on Wednesday, noticed the clouds.
