Plein Air Painting

Arlington Reservoir July 2024 was on display in Lingfield in October
With members and friends sessions of painting local landscapes are a feature of the Ashdown Arts group. It is something I enjoy doing with the group locally and on my own on my travels. I have painted in Croatia, Turkey, Italy, Iceland and New Zealand, as well as throughout the UK.

For Plein Air painting sessions I use Open Acrylics so that If i do have to complete at the studio, the paint can be re-opened. This doesn't always work as once a session finished with a downpour and the paint was largely washed from the canvas. Four sessions are planned for 2025 with additional sessions if the weather is suitable. The heatwave in June meant that the group worked in my garden. Hopefully there will be more suitable weather during the remainder of the summer. Last year's Ashdown Arts programme included days at Seaford and Arlington Reservoir.
