Plein Air & Study Sketches
Plein Air – “The act of painting outdoors with
the artist’s subject in full view.”
It’s such a beautiful and very rewarding experience
to do live paintings on location.
Study Sketches – ideas / practicing, etc…
I don’t generally market to sell these, but if you are interested,
$250 each info@jdhawkartstudio.com
I haven’t post all the Plein Air paintings or Study Sketches, but here are a few.
More coming soon …

Only four colours were used to paint this little fire hydrant. This colour scheme is known as the Zorn Palette. This is the only time (while using the Zorn Palette) I use the colour black. This was also the first time I tried it outside and on location.
