Plein air is one of the most peaceful, poetic, and chaotic artistic endeavors - getting outside on a beautiful day, then watching the light change, the fog roll in... all while trying to capture the feeling of your surroundings, a snapshot of that moment preserved forever. A moment that will never happen exactly the same again. You can't capture the same expression of color and detail from a photo; you have to feel the warmth of the sun, the dew on the grass, watch the ocean waves in motion. It's especially fun when out in a group of other artists, so we can discuss our processes and collectively agonize over the many challenges of painting! This is why one of my recent goals as an artist is to gather others for art outings, it is so lovely to be together - the lifestyle of an artist doesn't have to be a lonely one.
