Stems Plein Air 2021

New show coming up!

The 2021 Stems Plein Air Exhibition is coming to The Rice Gallery of Fine Art in Overland Park, Kansas from July 2nd - 31st.  

This will be my second time ever doing the Stems Plein Air show, and I am happy that I have a little painting called No Vehicles Beyond This Point accepted.  This is a small 6x8 oil on linen panel, and it's from one of my frequent hiking trails.  I painted it in May, so of course it had been raining a lot, and there were several days straight when there was no sunshine at all.  And I think it made for a great scene with the overcast lighting and the many muddy puddles breaking up the ground.  Since the light was filtered so well by the clouds, it was fun playing with a rich assortment of color.  That can be pretty hard to do on a bright sunshiny day in a location where there is not much but a lot of green grass, green bushes, and green trees.  The danger is putting way to much green in your painting and nothing else (which I've done before with plein air paintings).
