Roofless Painters is a global community of contemporary observational painters from every background and level of training looking at modern life with fresh and unorthodox eyes. We let our interpreting brushstrokes lead our experience. Rather than follow single methods or theories, we're guided by our joy and self-development, a passion for contemplation, and the thrill of connecting with places and things we love through painting, doing it together for opportunity, motivation, and support.
