I view the plein air pieces I have thus far produced as "studies" or "sketches and have made very few if any improvements to
the works after leaving the site. Many artists like to focus exclusively on plein air painting, believing it to be a superior way
of working. In my case, I began plein air painting in June 2008, as a way of enhancing my other work and challenging myself
to work quickly and loosely, disciplining myself to make choices and decisions in a very short period of time - a very different
way of working compared to the labor-intensive, slow layering approach of my traditional colored pencil work.
