My focus is painting the landscape on location
or as it’s often called Plein Air Painting. I enjoy the challenge and freedom of working from life observing light, colour, value and interpreting what I see onto canvas. working outdoors provides a unique set of challenges one of them being painting quickly to capture the fleeting light. I feel this time restraint has helped me focus on the essentials of painting. My current fascination is capturing mood and atmosphere while using a limited palette. |
