Painting outside is an important experience in developing as an artist, because it forces you to really see. Rather than copying from a two-dimensional photograph onto a two-dimensional painting surface, you must evaluate what you see in the three-dimensional landscape and figure out what and how to get “that” on your two dimensional painting surface. If you are really seeing the landscape, you will discover many truths and realities about that which you are painting. No longer will you be painting from pure theory of “how to paint a landscape”, but you will truly understand and see that which you are painting. Your painting will reveal that knowledge and freshness.
