If you want to know just how passionate plein air watercolorist can be, you should read the letters we received after failing to feature any watermedia artists in the most recent print edition of Plein Air (we did feature Raleigh Kinney in the digital edition). One artists who complained graciously but firmly was Californian Larry Cannon who showed us just how exciting transparent watercolor can be when used on location.

In the Fall digital edition of PleinAir magazine, Raleigh Kinney offers a demonstration of how to maintain the natural freshness, vibrancy, and immediacy of watercolors when painting Watercolor. The distinguished member of the Plein Air Painters of America also describes his background, teaching, and recent paintings.
