What is Plein Air Painting?
En Plein Air is a French term meaning “out of doors” or “in open air.” Artists paint en plein air to capture accuracy of light, color, and movement of a scene.
Plein air painting connects me not only to the subject in a more impactful way, but also to my community. I am always seeking out challenge and I believe we always have something to learn from one another. You can spot me painting at plein air competitions, or set up along the course at a trail race.
