Hi everyone! The number one thing we can learn from plein air painting is that it can be unpredictable! I start out this video with the best of intentions, but end up in the studio! A huge storm came up and altered my plans~ ha! Well, I enjoyed painting this lovely little nocturne and found the scene to be enchanting. I hope you enjoy this video, and take advantage of the free newsletter we put out every week. It's called "Renaissance Creative Art Tips and Techniques" (Link below) They always pair up with my YouTube videos! So you get a little more mileage from these educational videos every week! No purchase of anything necessary!
Just appreciate hearing that you're embracing life and the artistic journey even more. I believe the more people can get out and paint, the better the world will become. Have a fantastic week!
