"Beyond the Border, en Plein Air" takes visitors on a visual journey starting from the public parks, regional and national parks, into neighborhoods, past historical sites of architectural marvel, along the bay, and the serene Pacific shoreline. The journey concludes with a tranquil finale at the dock, leaving a lasting impression of the journey's diverse landscapes. This journey, much like the artistic process, is a transformative one where each step reveals new perspectives and insights. The exhibition offers a space where plein air artists share their unique interpretations of the world around them. Each painting is the artist's experience, inviting viewers to pause and reflect. The time and consideration given by each artist enriches the public's understanding of the artistic journey, making the exhibition a shared experience of discovery and appreciation. Thank you for highlighting the beauty of this artistic en plein air painting voyage. For more information visit: bonitahistoricalsociety.org Stay Connected on Facebook and Instagram
