EXPERIMENTAL MIXED MEDIA - EN PLEIN AIR - BY ARTIST SUE MARRAZZO

HERE IS MY TAKE ON EXPERIMENTAL PLEIN AIR PAINTING.
EN PLEIN AIR, (FRENCH), IS AN EXPRESSION WHICH MEANS "IN THE OPEN AIR," AND IS PARTICULARLY USED TO DESCRIBE THE ACT OF PAINTING OUTDOORS. IT IS NOT JUST FOR LANDSCAPE ARTISTS. I HAVE DONE THIS KIND OF PAINTING OVER THE YEARS OFTEN. I CREATE ACRYLIC ABSTRACTS, MIXED MEDIA ART, COLLAGES, AND ENCAUSTIC PAINTINGS OUTDOORS. I LOVE THE WARMTH OF THE SUN, THE SOUND OF THE BIRDS, THE COMPANY OF MY DOG, THE SIGHT OF THE TEXTURES AND COLORS. THE BLUE SKY WAS MY INSPIRATION AS YOU CAN SEE IN THESE PHOTOS TODAY. 
WHAT A JOY TO PAINT EN PLEIN AIR! 








THESE ARE CLOSE-UPS ON A PAINTING THAT I AM CURRENTLY WORKING ON. I AM EXPERIMENTING WITH SOME NEW COLORS AND MIXING MY OWN. THIS IS JUST THE BEGINNING OF THE CREATION OF A WORK OF ART.
