Plein Air Painters are a local group based at ArtisTree, who have gathered to paint outside each Friday for many years from May through October.

Plein air – the French expression for “open-air” – goes back centuries, but was made possible by the introduction of paints in tubes in the 1870s and popularized by the French Impressionists.

When working outside, these painters closely observe the constantly changing colors, textures, and shadows as the light shifts, the wind blows, and water flows.
