Plein air painting can be exhilarating when it goes well. And can be confounding when you first start. I suggest the number one thing you can do to get a handle on it. And then give an overview of materials and supplies I have come to use after more than 50 years of painting en plein air. It's pronounced "plen", like wren, in one sound "plenair".

Below is a list of the materials and suppliers I recommend:
