OMA's Plein Air Festival

It turns out we weren't done with the awesomeness that is the Oceanside Museum of Art and had to return for its very special current event- its second biennial Oceanside Plein Air Festival.

"This festival is an opportunity to celebrate creativity and the natural environment. It is not only about the artists who join in the creative process, it is also for our friends, neighbors, visitors, and art lovers of all ages that have connections to our beautiful city. Everyone is invited to share curiosity, wonder, and joy as they watch scenes of the ocean and beaches, landscapes, and cityscapes of Oceanside come to life on canvas and paper by artists of all levels. It is a time for people to find connection and empathy–all at the intersection of art and everyday life."
We came specifically to witness the creativity of the artists whose subjects were the vehicles owned by the very talented Members Only Car Club. What automobile eye candy! If you want to see them in all their glory, click on this link of them in action. I need to see that one day in person.
In the meantime, I was very pleased just to see them parked and available for our appreciative gazing.
The details are breathtaking but need to be ogled up-close!








Talent is certainly found in a variety of places and medium. Wow.

And of course we ran into Brady. She truly is synonymous with all things fun in Oceanside.
“Art enables us to find ourselves
and lose ourselves at the same time.”
