Plein Air Painting & Finding the Small Scenes. Watercolor Sketching.

Plein Air is such a rewarding exercise, not only for enjoying the outdoors but for seeing real color and atmosphere. But you don't always need to find the grand scene or vista. Look down or close and find the little scenes. This opens up a whole world of possibilities, perhaps even in close by, less picturesque locations.
