Plein Air
see also "studio landscapes"

These pieces are completed on site, necessitating a looser, more spontaneous style. What is lost in the ability to "fine-tune" over time in the studio is made up for by the full sensory involvement of the moment. To see a collection of small pieces at a very affordable price, go to miniatures and color studies.
