Plein air Drawing is a method to capture the surrounding landscape.
A Schelde Riverscape features a series of drawings that portray the changing landscape between Vlassenbroek and Broekkant. Due to klima change the River Schelde gets more space, dikes are moved… in a constantly shifting panorama. Time to picture the scene. Everyone is drawing; artists, civil engineers, landscape architects… even fishers are taking notes. Enthusiasts who seized the challenge, because en plein air is (was) the tradition here.
Plein air makes you see and draw or paint the current moment, its colour, light, atmosphere, and movements. Like deep listening, Plein air creates a deeper connection to the immediate daily environment, highlighting emotional and sensory dimensions of a particular landscape.
E-book online - printed version available over Jap Sam Books.
