My new book, Beautiful Landscape Painting Outdoors: Mastering Plein Air, is available for pre-order from both Amazon and Barnes & Noble. It gives you everything you need to know about plein air painting, from A to Z. Fifteen master artists share their knowledge-and their secrets-in this 160-page book that is packed with demonstrations in the major mediums, helpful techniques and many, many, many gorgeous images.
I've written the book so both beginner and advanced painters will benefit from it. If you're a beginner, you'll learn everything you need to get started and, better yet, how to have an enjoyable and satisfying experience. If you're an advanced painter, you'll learn the tricks that the masters learned the hard way, through long experience. (All you have to do is read the book!)
