Painting outside is very different from painting in a sterile studio. Paint dries much faster or not at all depending on the weather, wind blows easels over, the light is constantly changing, and biting insects are a constant distraction. All these things affect the outcome of the painting. These challenges tend to make plein air paintings more alive and vibrant.
Some of the artists will be at A Place for the Arts on November 5 between 11:00 am and 4:00 pm. Come and chat with us!
