Open Air Acrylic Paintings
This era of paintings began in 2017 when I embraced open air painting on location and usually I travel by adventure motorcycle. I paint smaller acrylic paintings in the field using a painting box mounted on a tripod. The style is impressionism which can be completed a lot faster than the larger oil paintings. Maybe I have met you out there :-)
