Plein Air Paintings, Demos, & Memories
“En Plein air” is a French Term that translates to “painting in the open air”. Though the French Impressionist brought new awareness and excitement, painting on location is a tradition that dates back for centuries. There is a certain life force that exists in plein air painting, it is a ‘live performance’ so to speak. A moment in time capturing nature’s many moods without preemptive strikes. The light charged particles glowing in the atmosphere, the birds and crickets singing, fragrances of fruits and flowers floating on the air infuse the paintings with a fresh and honest expression.
Italy & France
Paintings are demos and studies for workshops that I conducted in Italy. The day after my first Italy Workshop in 2019, I delivered my artwork to the Vatican Observatory in Castel Gandolfo. Please check my workshop page for upcoming workshops or visit the Italy painting workshop & retreat. Please join me in 2025 for a Painting Workshop & Retreat in the South of France and Italy.
