Plein Air

Plein air painting is the practice of creating art outdoors, capturing the natural light, colors, and atmosphere of a scene in real time. This technique emphasizes spontaneity and direct observation, often resulting in fresh, lively compositions. Artists use fast, expressive brushwork to adapt to changing light conditions, making plein air ideal for landscapes, cityscapes, and seascapes. It’s a dynamic approach that enhances an artist’s ability to see and interpret the world around them.
