OUTSIDE INSIDE The Juneau Plein Rein Painters have been creating art outdoors for 20 years. Using all art media and in all weather, we meet on Saturday mornings to paint together, inspired by our differing styles, and by the beauty of Juneau and the activities and people who live here. An annual spring retreat kickstarts our creativity for our most productive seasons, spring and summer. This year, as artists in covid19 isolation, we painted around the Borough when the weather cooperated, traveling in separate cars and staying six feet apart. But we also painted from inside our homes. We worked from “challenges” thought up by our members, explored new art media or finished previous work. Outside Inside, sponsored by the Juneau Arts & Humanities Council, is a group exhibit featuring the work of ten Plein Rein Painters: Teri Gardner Robus, Pua Maunu, Jane Lindsey, Patrick Ripp, Jay Crondahl, Timi Johnson, Crystal Cudworth, Arnie Weimer, Barbara Craver, and Patti Hutchins J

AUTOMATIC ART March 30, 2020 by Jay Crondahl "First , first thing in the morning hop out of bed like a cork out of a Champaign bottle! Next , dress as fast as you can , except a nice big shirt which you are going to wave about for five minutes just like a matador waves his big red Cape. Yaaaa, let your shirt settle gently over your shoulders now , ignore the bull , saunter into the studio and mindlessly paint your version of a Jackson Pollock . Here is my version " And responding to Jay's challenge Cristine Crooks Jane Lindsey Timi Johnson Crystal Cudworth Beth Potter Kerry Kirkpatrick The Squirrel of Judgment Teri Robus Pua Maunu
