Riverside Park, La Crosse, WI May 25, 2003 |
Dolores Marusarz found her first time working plein air to be immensely satisfying. She immediately learned the
necessity of preparing a sketch with notations to indicate where the sunlight and shadows were at the start of the session.
The changing light in the five-hour paint out made an enormous difference in the lighting.

Torn-paper collage by Barbara Decker |
Barbara has a big book of wallpaper samples which she expertly tears into pieces and glues down to sturdy board to show
her image of scenery. She occasionally will touch up a piece with acrylic paint before matting and framing the collage
painting.

Come take the Plein Air Challenge with materials we provide! |
Amy and Alex took the Plein Air Challenge when they got inspired by the artists and the beautiful scenery they were painting
outdoors along the east bank of the Mississippi River at La Crosse's Riverfront Park. All the materials they needed
were provided free by the La Crosse Area Plein Air Artists and through the generosity of Ben Franklin Crafts.

Pat is a budding artist who faithfully joins our group at nearly every paint out. She brings a fresh view and a
natal enthusiasm to her work. She approaches each piece joyfully.
