The artists will gather at North Shore Beach on Friday, June 6, for a day of plein air painting.
The event, organised by Jackson’s Art, will run from from 10 am to 3.30 pm.
From their spot on the promenade, artists will paint the surrounding seafront, Victorian buildings, pier, and gardens.An earlier plein air painting session staged by Jackson’s Art (Image: Jackson’s Art)
Event organiser and artist Lisa Takahashi said: “This scenic coast is a perfect open-air studio for capturing light, texture, and atmosphere.
“North Shore Beach offers artists a rich variety of subjects – from the perspective of the pier and promenade to the natural textures of sea and stone.”
This is the fourth plein air event by Jackson’s Art, following previous events in Somerset and London.
Ms Takahashi said: “Our plein air events are as much about community and wellbeing as they are about capturing landscapes and making art.‘It’s all about capturing landscapes’ (Image: Jackson’s Art)
“They offer a chance to slow down, connect with nature, be present in the moment, and meet like-minded people.
“There’s something truly special about painting in the open air.
“The natural light, shifting landscapes, and fresh air not only inspire creativity but also promote mindfulness and wellbeing.”
Attendees of previous events have shared their enthusiasm for the community aspect of the plein air days.
Professional artist Louise Waugh said: “It was really special to be with a big group of artists out in the elements sharing their passion for painting and creating.”
Another attendee mentioned the confidence boost from painting in a group, saying: “I don’t have the confidence to set my easel up on my own.”
The day will start with artists gathering at the Llandudno Pier Coffee Shop Kiosk at 10 am.

Live painting will continue throughout the beach until 3 pm, when there will be an informal meet-up for artists and attendees to reflect on the day.
Jackson’s Art encourages the public to come along to the free event, observe the artists at work, and engage in conversations about their creative processes.
Whether you’re a resident, visitor, or art enthusiast, the North Shore Beach Plein Air Day promises a “uniquely inspiring cultural experience’ in one of Wales’ most picturesque seaside towns”.
