Outdoor Painting Tips with Matt Smith
Manage episode 363565055 series 3262048
Matt Smith jokes that when he retires as a professional painter, he will become a full time plein air painter so he can spend all his time doing what he loves. Check out this episode to get some of his tips for new (and veteran) outdoor painters.
About the Artist: Matt Smith earned a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in painting from Arizona State University. Somewhat frustrated with the abstract focus of the program at ASU, he began looking to outside sources for inspiration and guidance. These sources included fellow artists, fine galleries and museums. This is where his "real" education began. These days, Matt can often be found painting en Plein air from southern Arizona to the Canadian Rockies, from the California coast to the Rocky Mountains. "I appreciate traditional landscape painting and I am inspired by the pristine landscapes of the American West. I enjoy working in areas where one can travel for miles without seeing the influence of man. When I paint, I feel I've hit the mark when I've captured a balance between mood, look and feel.
