En Plein Air |
|
The sparkling morning dew on the grass that is still refreshingly damp to touch. The whispering wind that caresses, carrying on with it the faint whiff of wildflowers and the sounds of roosting birds. The rains that darken the skies, mist the horizon and tap a melody over rustling leaves. This is what the artist is faced with when painting en plein air - where all his senses of sight, smell, sound and touch are continuously engaged, where he is in direct contact with nature's life force. And in turn, this lends to his art something that is so invigorating - that it never fails to touch a chord with the viewer. |
