- Our theme at Opus for the upcoming summer is "Creative Adventure".
To help launch our theme, we thought to explore the experience of plein air painting through artist Gaye Adams. In this video, she shares the excitement, inspiration and challenges faced when painting outdoors. Gaye is an enthusiastic plein air and landscape painter who is fascinated with catching the effects of light in her paintings. She teaches plein air workshops in Canada and internationally.

About our theme: Creative Adventure
As we move into the Summer season, we're exploring the theme 'Creative Adventure’ - a celebration of fresh air and fresh interactions in the artistic process.
Being out in the open as well as coming together as a community can reinvigorate our spirits and spark our creativity. Whether we’re Plein Air painting, sketching, photographing natural landscapes, exploring the world (through lens, pencil or brush) or creating site-specific installations, these shared experiences and the inspiration gathered from our surroundings are stepping stones towards the creation of something truly unique and meaningful.
So let’s get out there and fully immerse ourselves and interact with the outdoors. Let’s connect with fellow creatives. Nurturing our spirits through these experiences will set us up for a memorable summer full of inspiration and creativity, enabling us to gain new perspectives, find inspiration, and appreciate our artistic pursuits more deeply.
I remember my first drawing assignment was to go out into the city and draw. I haven't tried Plein Air painting but thought about it recently. Thanks for the inspiration!
What a lovely person. Thank you for sharing your joy and knowledge♥

I am starting plein air painting now (I just retired recently). Thanks for posting the encouraging video.
