Plein air painting is the practice of painting outdoors, on location, rather than in a studio, so the artist can capture natural light, atmosphere, and color directly from observation. Popularized by the Impressionists, it remains popular among landscape painters who value the spontaneity and immediacy of working directly from nature.
