...Back to this painting...
I give some tips on how to keep your plein air set up /easel steady in the wind and weather and the mistake I made which led to my easel biting the dust and tipping over.
Some other takeaways from this beautiful Colorado fall plein landscape adventure:
☑️#1: Don't be afraid to use thick paint.
☑️#2: Don't be afraid to use pure color right out of the tube without mixing it.
☑️#3: Look for the color and temperature variations in the light objects, and the shadow objects that you are painting. Don't just use one color.
☑️#4: Oh, and last..weigh down your easel in case it's windy, and ..tighten those knobs on the legs to the max and bring a small wrench for those cold days when it gets stuck!
Keep watching, and I'll see you in the mountains !
(I have been formally trained through an apprenticeship in the style of Russian Impressionism with veteran plein air painter Don Sahli, won awards for my plein air paintings, and have successfully sold paintings in galleries, shows and private commissions all over the USA.)
I'm here to help BEGINNER plein air landscape painters. I look forward to helping you make beautiful plein air paintings and discover your passion!

Hey! My mentor was a student of Sergei Bongart, the best Russian impressionist painter. No wonder I love your style! Mahalo from The Big Island, Hawaii🌈👍🎨
thats amazing! , so cool to see Bongarts influence - thanks Roxanne
No I'm 77 and I want to paint. It is fun but it is sort of what i think is soul satisfying. No my painting is not very good but it is what i like to do since i cannot sing anymore. A lot things come up to prevent me from painting.
Thanks for the encouragement. Happy Birthday!
Hey Margaret sorry I missed your original comment..thanks for watching and I really believe plein air painting is not for making masterpieces, but mostly for finding peace and joy and having fun, ..so, keep on plein air painting! Blessings to you and take care
Love the real in plein air, great vid!
thanks for watching !
I keep a pair on pliers in my french easel to tighten the legs, my hands are bad. It works pretty good
You are exactly right Debra, I had em in my backpack and didnt use them, my french box easel is so old that I actually just bought an "en plein air pro " easel with locking telescopic legs , its lighter, I really like it. 😃 Have a great week!
Thanks... From Spain.👍
Thanks Jose ! Beautiful country 😎👍
The opening to the video certainly got my attention XD
Just went on my first plein air painting adventure yesterday! It was so much fun going out on a nice sunny day and painting with friends :D
It was a slow start to the painting ( the ugly phase as I call it ) but it all came together in the end. My favorite part of the painting was definitely going in at the end with a palette knife and really making the tree leaves and branches "pop" off the canvas :)
Thanks so much for showing us your progress in plein air painting. Keep up the great work! :D
that is wonderful ! I saw your plein air painting on instagram and I cant believe that is your first plein air painting, very well done, I love the colors and the buildings are very well done, keep it up!
@@LearningPleinAir Thanks so much!! :D
l had an in- progress painting that blew off,landed face down in dried twigs,grass and dirt and an ant. l ended up with a great piece of work. The fun of outdoor painting...thks for posting i enjoyed your video and humour
that's awesome Barbaranne, love it. If there's no bugs or dirt, its not a true plein air piece, (LOL) so I applaud you! 👏
Thank you for watching, and great to hear from you. 😃
Thank you for your wonderful demonstration today and always I enjoy watching!
You are welcome Chery! Thank you for the kind words and for watching my channel 😊
Beautiful amazing love the colors
Thanks so much G, 👍 It's so colorful in the fall in Colorado!
Absolutely helpful- love your appreciation for nature.
Thank you very much.
Much appreciated Mary, thanks for watching and great to hear from you, 😄 hope your painting time is going well!
Thanks for posting.
You bet!
Happy birthday 🎈. Thanks for sharing. I feel the same about painting. 🤗
very cool Ginni, thanks for watching ! 😊
Excellent explanation 🥰👏🏻👏🏻
Thanks, appreciate it! 😊
I lived in Geneva for some time 84-84 nice time in my life,got into painting here,hope you enjoyed your time too,wonderful work
Thanks Lorraine, wow Geneva is so beautiful, must have been amazing for you to paint there,
I was too busy playing ice hockey...should have painted instead,LOL thank you for touch base and watching 😃
Thanks for posting this video. I like En plein aire. I try... but I only end up smearing paint on panels outside. but hey, it's fun to try.
I was also living in Switzerland. I was great friends with Bill McDougall, Stefan Grogg and the rest of the team (EV Zug) while I lived there in the 90's. In fact Stefan actually came to visit me in Southern California for a week when returned stateside. I was saddened to learn of his fight with ALS.
I Liked and Subscribed 👍🙏🤙
Great to hear from you and thank you for subscribing! 🙏😊. It would be amazing to plein air paint in Switzerland 🇨🇭, my brother and his family still live there , he played for Zurich , I played for HC Herisau, I treasure my time there. So neat that you knew some players, I remember Stefan ... take care , talk to you again , and hope you keep plein air painting 👍👍
@@LearningPleinAir - That's so cool. I was born here in the States and I didn't know anybody when I first went there in '91. I was only 22. But I technically grew up into a man there so I consider Luzern my hometown in CH.
ZSC was my favorite hockey team, by the way. FCZ was my favorite soccer team. I loved it when we played Basel in both sports. Feldschlossen's and the fun skirmishes. LOL... I'm glad I found your channel. Tchuus
Wow, no way! Where do you live now CA ? ZSC teams were so great, my brother played for them in 1999- early 2000's, Mark Ouimet... and Luzern is a most beautiful place, love the bridge. I really love Basel too , the whole country is simply amazing, and good food. They got a lot of snow this winter up in the mountains my brother said. Tchuss!
I'd been more worried bout a bull! Lol
Right ? How Funny…A little close for comfort.
Thanks for watching Teresa, take care
thanks for your video, Great work, barely getting into Plein Air, thanks.
Hey Cesar, thanks! I think your gonna love it, let me know how it goes 😃
@@LearningPleinAir i dont have as beautiful scenery as you, I live in south Texas so I started painting old churches in small rural towns... loving painting outdoors, but not sure if I like the abstract side of plein air, I like more detailed work. trying to find my own style
Gotcha, those old churches would be great to paint in early morning light or late afternoon, there are many great "realist" plein air painters too, my style is "messy". But I encourage you to experiment and find your unique style! - take care, wish you the best 😁
@@LearningPleinAir Thanks for your encouragement keep painting and doing what you do!
@@TheBallzout you’re welcome , ok thank you I sure will , talk to ya sometime
So your pieces are basically chuncking things into component parts mate? Like the dialogues, many dont talk and makes it hard to follow the thought process jey.
Hey Burt yes exactly mate 👍
my strategy is not to paint mountains or trees but to paint objects -large objects to small objects and get the right color value and temperature , so I try to paint what I see and not what I know, Chuncking the landscape into 3 to 5 pieces is a great way to get started so you don’t get lost in the weeds
thanks for watching! 😁

Can we do Plein air painting with acrylic or it has to be in oil
oil paint is easier and more friendly to different weather and temperatures , but yes you can most certainly plein air paint with acrylic paint. 😀
If the weather is dry, your paints will dry quicker though, also acrylics stop working well in very cold temperatures/snow. Let me know how it goes! Thank you for reaching out Mahjbeen
@@LearningPleinAir thanks for the reply.
I find this technique so fascinated. Your video is so helpful.
I am just a beginner. I will certainly try with acrylic. I might use a thickening medium.
@@mahjbeenbokhari8426 my pleasure, yes you can do it, and you will love it. Try a thickening agent, like "Gel Medium" for acrylic paints...there are many options, I shop at dickblick.com or just google what to use. Let me know how it goes, thanks for watching! 😃
I don't get it. Why bother] en plein air if you aren't going to paint what you see? If all you are going to do is plop blobs of paint all over the place why not just do it at home and call it scenery. That doesn't look anything like the scene. Nothing at all.
Thanks for watching Phillip, 😄 I en plein air paint for the peace and joy it brings and I love to be in the mountains, I hate studio painting unless its for skills practice or I'm painting a commission. Perhaps you are more into realism painting ? and not familiar with Russian Impressionism,.. I'm not trying to replicate a photo of the scene, I love the painting, its exactly the scene I was looking at and my goal is to create an impression, a memory and a feeling, not a photo..but you are certainly entitled to your opinion!....and that is why we all love art, its an expression and beauty is in the eyes of the beholder. Watch a few more videos and see what impressionism is all about 👍, God bless buddy..
Sorry 84-88

Die from cows than sharks each year. Just sayin 😂
