Plein Air 8x12 From the Blue Ridge Billups

  

From the Blue Ridge 8x12. Being a plein air painter, painting clouds is a real challenge, to capture the energy and CONSTANT changing light, not only in the clouds, but the quickly shifting shapes and values of the land, as it drops into the shadows of evening!

The word "plein aire painting" is French for "on the spot", on location... That is NOT in the studio! That word had NOT been used in the USA since around the 1920s! In 1986 I was asked to create ONE magazine ad, for Denise Burns, who started Plein Air Painters of America. I convinced her to allow me to set up a national ad campaign. And thru those ads, plein air painting has spread like wild fire thru out the USA!
