In this richly illustrated guide, nationally recognized artist and naturalist Cathy Johnson offers a complete introduction to the time-honored French style of plein-air ( open-air ) painting, made famous by the Impressionists of the mid-19th century who valued the honesty of painting outdoors and on-site, capturing the moment in one sitting.

Whether a beginner or an experienced artist, this book will inspire you to capture the spontaneity of nature’s beauty in pencil, pastel, watercolor, acrylic and more.
