Tuscany Paintings, Venice Paintings,

Plein air landscape paintings and field studies of gardens, water, and scenes of Europe and the American South

These are all paintings I have done on location (en plein air). Many of these paintings, (such as those in the James River Series) were done near where I live in Richmond, Virginia. But also included in this gallery are paintings I have done during my travels to other beautiful locations in North America and in Europe. These paintings are often complete works in and of themselves, but they can also serve as studies for larger works that I may choose to create in the studio. The understanding that I have gained from direct observation in the field has been immeasurable to my growth as a landscape painter. There is nothing like painting that ever changing light!

 plein air painting of Hatteras Island by Jennifer Young
 
I painted this piece on location in Richmond's Bryan Park. I started at about 5 PM, but the light changed so quickly and that beautiful backlighting didn't last long. After about an hour and a half, the sun sank quickly behind the trees on the distant hill, and took all of that beautiful backlighting with him!Luckily I got the painting about 90% complete. At that point, I had "captured the essence but not the poetry”. This is what I hoped for  as I worked on the final 10% immediately after I returned home to the studio (while everything was still fresh in my mind).

This piece is currently offered unframed . Please contact us for more information.
