Spring has finally come, and once again I am outdoors painting. It is so refreshing to experience a warm spring day, easel and paints in hand and setting up to create a painting of the lovely moment unfolding before me. The pastel greens and reds defuse the light into a soft glow that fills the landscape. There is so much color in the budding and blossoming trees and flowers at this time of year that I wish they would stay that way even in summer. But alas it can not be. But in all seriousness, each season has it's own special beauty and elements to be captured by the enthusiastic plein aire painter.
