Technique
I teach a proven four step technique that will help you make beautiful plein air landscape paintings.
Step #1 is the drawing stage and sets the foundation and roadmap for a great painting.
I wanted to learn a plein air technique that could take me from blank canvas to beautiful painting.
So I did a formal apprenticeship with one of the best plein air landscape oil painters in the country- Don Sahli who learned directly under legendary Russian Impressionist Sergei Bongart.
When I saw those thick confident colorful brushstrokes I immediately knew I had to learn. Nothing compares to being out in nature and painting with the sun on your face and the wind rustling through the trees.
I started Learning Plein Air © so that beginner plein air students could learn the best techniques online and affordably instead of traveling to expensive workshops.
