OXFORD - Nearly 20 artists braved unusually cold and windy weather on Saturday to offer up some unique perspectives on Oxford’s local landscape during Colorscape Chenango’s 3rd Annual “Wet Paint” fundraising event.

From morning to mid-afternoon, artists armed with pencils, paints and plaster were stationed in Lafayette Park and across the Village of Oxford, steadily re-creating the ambiance and charm of various landmarks. Meanwhile, local citizens and visitors from across the county viewed and voted, by way of auction, on the speedily-produced artwork that best caught their eye.

“Wet Paint,” organizer Lisa Iannello explained, “is staying with Colorscape Chenango’s mission of promoting local artists in Chenango County.”
