My latest article, "What to Know About Painting Snow," appears in the current (Feb/Mar 2019) issue of PleinAir Magazine. Apparently, with this week's monstrous winter storm hitting the north, the article is timely. I've already had one reader write to me to say: "The article was very inspiring; I've ordered a yard full."
In the article, I offer my own tips on painting snow, based on my wintertime experiences in the Canadian Maritimes as well as in the high desert of New Mexico. But I also interviewed several other artists of note: T.M. Nicholas, Barbara Jaenicke, Marc Dalessio, Chuck Marshall, T.J. Cunningham, D.F. Gray, Lynn Boggess and Carol Strock Wasson. Thank you to all the artists who gave me such valuable information.
One thing to note about the magazine is that, in addition to the print version, it offers an "expanded digital" version. The digital version has many more images that you won't find in the print version.
Here are the images of mine that are included in the article.
