Plein Air

watercolors

Plein Air means painting outdoors from observation, as opposed to indoors from reference. For me it’s a way to reflect and appreciate beauty, be it flowers, landscape, or architecture.

How it started

I started painting plein air while working at Disney World in Florida. It was my life-long dream to work there and I wanted to absorb every single moment of that magical experience! I started going to Disney parks after work and draw my favorite places so they really stick in my memory.

I soon discovered that painting on location is the best way to become present - it’s like a meditation for me.
