Plein Air Painting By Stewart Jones I enjoyed some time plein air painting in the cooler weather of Ohio this month. I grew up in rural Ohio from the ages of 4 to 20 before moving to Florida. This month I took the opportunity to travel back to Ohio to visit with family and friends that I haven’t seen for quite some time.

I traveled with my watercolor paints so that I could paint the landscape that I remembered so fondly. One of my favorite subjects is old wooden barns. I enjoy painting this subject because I know historic barns are vanishing rapidly, being replaced by modern metal structures. Farmland is being converted into new houses and subdivisions and the vast open country is quickly disappearing. You can see more of my paintings at: StewartJonesArt.com



Plein Air painting is the term used to describe paintings that are created outdoors by by artists on site. Challenges include the type of paint used to paint outdoors, animals, bugs, onlookers, and environmental conditions such as weather. I am always aware of these conditions and I try to show the atmosphere in my paintings. Stop by my studio and you’ll see many of my paintings which were created in plein air.
