In French, the term “en plein air” refers to the practice of painting the outdoors while immersed in nature itself. In doing so, artists are not only able to capture the look of a location with their own eyes, but also the lighting, atmosphere and overall feel of a landscape.
Throughout the past week, artists have flexed their creativity to show who can represent the beauty of the Umpqua Valley best in their works.
