Laguna Plein Air Painters Association was founded in 1996 by Saim Caglayan with the united efforts of Ken Auster, Jacobus Baas, Cynthia Britain and John Cosby, who form the association’s board of directors. Primary motivation for the formation of LPAPA , or Laguna Plein Air Painters Association was to link the strong plein air movement of the early California painters to the present ones and to create a bond amongst the contemporary plein air painters throughout the nation.  April Raber is a member of LPAPA.

Welcome to the web site for Southern California plein air landscape artist, April Raber.  Many of April Raber's plein air landscape oil paintings depict California rural scenes and oceanscapes around Laguna Beach, Dana Point, Trabuco Canyon, and Newport Beach's Backbay.    April's oil paintings are rendered in the style reminiscent of early California plein air impressionistic painters.  The web site is organized into several virtual galleries, including Coastal, Landscapes, Floral, Still Life, Backbay, Industrial Heritage Collection  and the Mission Collection.  Feel free to visit them all.  Visitors will also find information about California's plein air art galleries, art events, and plein air art organizations.

April Raber's landscape oil paintings are currently on display at art galleries and shows listed in the web site.  This web site is updated every 4-5 weeks, so only representative artwork and paintings are displayed on the web site.
