En Plein Air – Lyons Lake

En Plein Air

Half sheet watercolor paper. In 2017 I took an en plein air class taught by Susan Badger hosted by The Kalamazoo Institute of Art. This particular session took place at the Richmond’s property on Lyons Lake. My children recently gifted me an En Plein Air Pro set up so I could get out and do this more often. I remembered these pictures ( thank you iPhone memories ) and felt it was a good place to start this journey.
