In one of the popular features of PleinAir magazine and the PleinAir Today e-newsletter, we showcase paintings of artists working outdoors. Illinois Michael Latala recently added to that series by sending a photograph of the painting he created of his friend Bart Bemus when the two men were plein air painting with James Swanson.

Before we can give you a full report on festivals, we love sharing photos sent to us as the events are happening. Here are some great photos from Plein Air Cedarburg, sponsored by the Cedarburg Artists Guild in Wisconsin (June 13-24, 2012).
