Who are the
"Cider" Painters?
The C.P.A. is a tribute to the Whiskey
Painters of America and the Scotch and Watercolor Society, serious
artists with light hearted outlooks. Since most of the original
founders were "teetotalers", we decided the Cider. |

What is a Cider
Painting?
It is a piece of artwork painted
smaller than 3" x 5" in size. We measure it actual
painting boundaries, not by square inches. |

|
|
|
Do you only
accept 2-Dimensional painted media?
In 2021 we added two new categories
to our media division. One is Graphite pencil. The second is
sculpture. We are growing to accomodate interest in our organization.
Currently we accept most types of media except those in computer
fields. |

|
Do artists
paint with actual Cider?
Sometimes, but we prefer to drink
it. |
