IMPRESSIONS OF PLACE
contemporary 'plein-air' oil paintings
Imagine walking in the woods on a snowy day. The absolute quiet is intoxicating! The colors of snow... the shadows and reflections; the sights, sounds and smells fill the air; and always, the light. Add an easel, some paints, an artist willing to embrace the possiblities of Nature and you're ready for the adventure of
"plein-air" painting.
"I'm inspired by this challenge. Anyone who has ever walked through a forest especially in winter, has felt its dignity and monumentality. Painting is my way of preserving that experience and sharing it with others. It's my 'true north'."
Carol Grigus
