New Smyrna Beach Paint Out

New Smyrna Beach Paint Out Join us this October for the Annual New Smyrna Beach Paint Out and Discover Nature through Art! https://www.artistsworkshopinc.com/community-guidelines

This fabulous five-day event invites you to Discover Nature through Art and celebrates everything that makes our seaside community unique. With a goal of raising valuable funds for two local nonprofits, the New Smyrna Beach Paint Out brings to light the important work of Marine Discovery Center and Artists’ Workshop, NSB. During this celebration of art and the outdoors, several professionally-acclaimed plein air artists will paint outside from dawn through evening at locations in New Smyrna Beach and nearby areas. The public is invited to watch the artists at work, view their recently completed paintings in the Artists’ Workshop NSB, and attend free daily painting demonstrations. This year's NSB Plein Air Paint Out will continue the legacy of fund-raising to enhance our environmental education and art programs and to further the goals of both the Marine Discovery Center and the Artists’ Workshop of conservation and stewardship of the Indian River Lagoon and art appreciation to our youth, community and visitors.

🎨 Meet our next featured NSB Paint Out artist!
We are thrilled to welcome back award-winning artist Barbara Ortiz!

For Barbara, plein air painting and a love of the outdoors are a match made in heaven. Working in both oils and pastels, she engages all five senses on location—feeling the warm breeze, hearing the birds, and using glowing light, soft shadows, and dynamic textures to capture the essence of a landscape. Fresh off winning First Place overall in the national Plein Air Salon competition, Barbara uses her vibrant art to celebrate Florida’s turquoise springs, rich forests, and coastal beauty, inspiring others to protect and preserve nature.

Be sure to stop by and see Barbara's award-winning talent in action at the NSB Paint Out! https://www.zeffy.com/en-US/ticketing/nsb-plein-air-paint-out-2026-patrons?fbclid=IwY2xjawUUUSBwZG9mAWV4dG4DYWVtAjEwAGJyaWQRMUFKbG1udHUyYkt2WU1uclpzcnRjBmFwcF9pZBAyMjIwMzkxNzg4MjAwODkyAAEenQzrxK5jFJN3Z3OeepBvv0d2Z7CX5oYV5jZwu66_wFxgie6nFywkc4ichh8_aem_TN21DDYl0HF0v3ETZtX0gw

We are thrilled to highlight Florida native, landscape, and seascape painter Patrick Rausch!

A self-taught oil artist and instructor at The Artists' Workshop right here in New Smyrna Beach, Patrick’s work is shaped by a lifetime spent sailing, diving, and exploring the Florida coast, the Keys, and the Bahamas. Masterfully using a distinct six-color limited palette, he captures breathtaking cloud formations, coastal cottages, and peaceful backcountry waters. His paintings serve as a vibrant invitation to slow down and appreciate the natural Florida beauty that so often gets overlooked.

Be sure to stop by, say hello, and see Patrick's coastal oil paintings come to life at the NSB Paint Out!

Raised by artistic parents and heavily influenced by a childhood spent in Europe, Elisabeth brings a rich, classical tradition to her plein air work. Describing her style as "classical representational," she paints outdoors whenever possible, pairing landscapes with wildlife she studies and photographs herself. Her goal is simple and profound: to capture authentic, untamed beauty so others can appreciate and cherish the land we have today.
