Plein Air Painting
There is nothing I enjoy more to do on a beautiful day then to work outdoors on a Plein Air painting. I have worked on paintings in the Colorado Rockies, Caribbean, New England and other locations. My Plein Air paintings have been exhibited in many solo, juried and group exhibitions.
5th Annual Plein Air Celebration 2016 at the Olana Estate Hudson, NY
The Plein Air 2016 event at the Olana Estate in the Hudson Valley, was a truly wonderful experience.
I completed three paintings during this weekend event. On the first morning, I set up my easel along the outside of Olana's beautiful garden. After completion, I walked along a trail that encircled the Heart Pond, with a view looking through the woods up at the home of artist Fredric Church of the Hudson River School. On the following day, I arrived at Olana by 7:30 am in order to paint the early morning view of the Catskill mountains as the fog rose up from the rolling hills below the mountains.
