The EnPleinAirTEXAS Ranch Fellowship celebrates the area’s 100-year plein air painting history with an immersive invitational experience for five past EnPleinAirTEXAS Competition Artists in the authentic ranch culture of West Texas. ‘Plein Air’ is a French term for painting out in the open air.

Five nationally award-winning plein air artists will spend 3 weeks living and painting on West Texas ranches in September 2025.

The ‘STAMPEDE’ is an exhibit and sale of their creative works from the ranch stay.
