Annual Bisbee Plein Air Painting Competition

Aug
21–22

Artists are invited to Bisbee to paint the picturesque hillsides of Tombstone Canyon and the lovely gardens in the Warren District. This is a great opportunity to network with Arizona’s many Plein Air painters and take advantage of a well-organized venue to sell your work.

Bisbee Plein Air is open to any artist who paints using the plein air technique in oil, watercolor, acrylic, or pastel. All paintings entered in show/sale must be done “en plein air” (in the open air where the artist has no control of light or weather) during the event dates in the City of Bisbee. All canvas/ paper must be stamped.

Friday evening artists’ tour, reception, Saturday, Bisbee Bloomers Garden Tour, 10a-4p, Artists paint all day, awards ceremony, 5p, reception and sale follows.
