If you're out hiking and there is a lovely view that strikes your eye, you can easily whip out a small sketchbook or watercolor pad and use pencils, colored pencils, or watercolor to quickly make a sketch of what you see. You can also work from quick landscape studies or sketches. Then if want to put a flowing river in front of them, you can. For example, if you like a hill from one photo and a gnarly old tree from another photo, you can combine them into the same landscape. You can also take certain elements from different photos to create a unique composite landscape. If you work from photographs, you can work in the comfort and privacy of your own studio, without being dependent on daylight or the weather. There are, however, benefits to working from a photograph as well. You are already immersed and absorbed in the beauty of the scenery. The benefit of plein air painting is that you can see the landscape right in front of you. Plein air is a French term that means "in the open air". Landscapes can be painted plein air or from a photograph. The main unifying element of any of these -scape artworks is that they all center around some kind of scenery. For example, they can also include images of seascapes, cloudscapes, skyscapes, riverscapes, or cityscapes (otherwise known as "urban landscapes"). Landscape paintings also aren't necessarily limited to depictions of land. Landscapes can also be surreal and purely imaginative, as in Dali's unusual and dreamlike artwork. A good example of artists who work in this method are the Aboriginal artists of Australia who create intensely detailed abstract paintings.(You can see an example of one of my colorful abstract landscape paintings below, which was inspired in part by Australian Aboriginal art.) Another group of painters who adapted the use of color to form highly emotional, creative landscapes are the Fauvists, who chose wildly unexpected colors for a jarring and unsettling effect. For instance, a landscape painting can be created in an abstract manner, in which the imagery is imbued with a deeper spiritual meaning. But landscape painting does not need to replicate a specific place. They can be painted realistically, in an effort to replicate nature as closely as possible (such as my Fields of Gold pastel painting below). Landscape artists can choose to depict their vision of the earth in a variety of ways. Throughout history, artists have found endless inspiration in the mysterious beauty of nature and the grandeur of the earth's varied landscapes. the earth provides endless inspirations for visual artists. From barren deserts to lush rainforests from swelling oceans to cloudy skies.
