Oil on canvas
I am starting to paint outside, using oils, which is totally out of my comfort zone. Painting outside enables me to see colours the camera can't see. Painting them with oils is a skill in itself, using the Alla prima method which is wet on wet, is tricky. They are quick paintings, studies for larger ones in the future.
It's a new venture for me and I have a lot of learning to do!
En Plein Air painting is about leaving the four walls of your studio behind and experiencing painting and drawing in the landscape. The practice goes back for centuries but was truly made into an art form by the French Impressionists. Their desire to paint light and its changing, ephemeral qualities, coupled with the creation of transportable paint tubes and the box easel—the precursor to the plein air easels of today—allowed artists the freedom to paint “en plein air,” which is the French expression for “in the open"
