An excellent presentation. I am an amateur hobbyist who has been PA painting for many years. In my part of the world (Tampa Bay area) we PA paint year round. Within an hour’s drive, we can PA paint every Tue AM with 2 groups and Fri AM with two other groups. Within an hours drive, there are at least 4 four-day paint-outs a year, several quick draws a year, and a couple of Curso Rapidos a year. As a member of a local Lions Club, I have run a very successful CR in March, with profits going to aid the vision impaired.
Many of my colleagues have mused that it is indeed unfortunate that the PA Convention has been on the West Coast when the PA Mag is based here in Florida. Many advanced amateurs would love to participate in a mega-Paint Out but simply do not have the wherewithal to trek cross-country for that affair.
(7) awesome folk have had something to say...

Great video presentation. The video hits all the nuances of what drives me to paint outdoors.

A whole generation is ready to put their screens down and pick up brushes. This beautiful film is an inspiration.

Incredibly good documentary. Interesting and inspiring. Very usuable as a tool to promote the practice of plein air painting.
