Plein air painting reminds me of my days as an equestrian. It is a grounding experience to be outdoors, communing with nature's elements and creating art from what I see. Recording with an augmented sense of color and vibrancy inspires my heart and hand. A weathered old adirondack chair was colorless but the dappled light moved me to start painting quickly. Then the colors took over. This happy, comfortable chair spoke volumes. I came home and sat outside in mine with a glass of wine and watched the sun set behind the farm.
