Please Excuse the Mess Our Site is Under Construction! The passion for outdoor painting is alive and well in Ohio. In a relatively short time, OPAS has managed to bring together a growing society of plein air painters who were formerly unknown to each other. For artists working alone, or in smaller groups, OPAS serves as the statewide unifying link that connects you to others who share your love of painting outdoors. Details for the April in Athens Paintout are on the Program Page. OPAS welcomes all Ohio artists at any level of their career. Our membership includes beginning plein air painters, experienced career artists, and patrons who are simply interested in fostering the tradition of this difficult art form. Oil painters, pastel painters, watercolor painters, those working in drawing, or any other medium that is conducive to working on location, outside of photography, are welcome.
