The Plymouth Arts Club

We have two Outdoor Painting sessions planned for this year, and both are at the same venue Mutton Cove.

Mutton Cove - offers us a wealth of subjects to paint including the King Billy Statue, Mashfords Boatyard and Cremyll just across the water and backed by Mount Edgcumbe Park, plus the cove itself, with its harbour of interesting and picturesque small boats.

It is an ideal location for us, not far, easy to find, and has plenty of parking, plus a cafe and toilets - what else could you want!

We hope to see you there around 1100 on the 1st and 22nd August for a really good day of painting - 'en plein air' - and meeting on the West side of the harbour.
