Capturing Moments: A Plein Air Journey
Equipped with markers, pens, and watercolor paints, I set off on every journey prepared to document my experiences through Plein Air drawing and painting. Regardless of the destination, be it a new city, country, or locale, I dedicate time to visually and sensually capture the essence of each place. Basking in the sun's warmth and feeling the gentle breeze, I immerse myself in the moment as I translate the scene onto the canvas with the texture of paint or the crisp stroke of a pen. This artistic process enables me to form deeper connections with the places I visit, resulting in truly unique and heartfelt creations.
