 Inefficient
processes and working habits take up unnecessary time and get in the way of
your art. All successful professionals have well organized equipment, both
in their studio and outdoors. As a beginner, you should get organized since
it will make your painting time much more enjoyable and less frustrating. Here
are some of the things you will learn in this course:
- How to create your personal learning program.
- Equipment setup: What equipment to buy and how to get setup to work outdoors
and in the studio.
- Colors: Which colors to use and why.
- Outdoor painting and travel: How to lighten your load for outdoor painting,
and what to consider when painting and traveling by air.
- How to paint from photographic reference.
 
 To
capture the essence of a landscape or outdoor (plein air) still life where the light is
constantly changing, you need to work quickly. In a short time you have to
capture the important essence of the mood and feeling of light in your painting. This is the essence of plein air painting. The process for oils and acrylics is called the "plein air alla prima painting process". There is also a similar step-by-step process for watercolor artists.
 Here I describe in detail the nine-step plein air painting process I use for my plein air paintings.
This plein air painting process is quick and efficient and will help you get the best results. Best of all, the
same plein air painting technique is equally applicable to studio work where you want
to get a nice loose feeling and want to complete a painting in one or more sessions and to figure work when the figures are likely
to move. Plein air painters usually work light, often using a pochade box. A pochade box is a small lightweight box used for painting outdoors.

"Like ALL the other guides that Barry John Raybould has developed, this painting guide is outstanding. Not only is the information presented clearly with helpful visuals, but there are tips and concepts that are rarely, if at all, covered anywhere else. An exciting find! "
"I found the booklet very helpful and worth the price. Much better than many of the art instruction books I have purchased over the years."
"This is fabulous! Thank you so much - I have referred you to another plein air artist here in Oregon - your instruction is incredible. Thanks again." ... Mary Lou, Beaverton, OR, United States. |
