This is number 4 of the 5 plein air paintings that I did. I was working on learning to paint outdoors for you those that don't paint, you might be wondering what is different painting from a picture or still life than painting from a outside scene.
Really all painting methods vary depending on what and where you are painting. Painting from a photo is the easiest because it doesn't change but it is harder if you really want to show all the value and make it look not flat.
Painting a still life is the second easiest because the light and the object stays still, Hmmm maybe that is where they got still life, duh right? it is a little like painting from the outdoors because it is real life and all the values are there so painting from the real 3d.
Painting plein air is the most difficult for me because to capture the life you see you must know the procedure to put down fast what you see. The light is constantly changing.

Many Plein air artist believe that it is the truest form out of the methods and will only paint that method.

So here are my attempts
