"Plein Air Painting the American Landscape" PBS series now available on DVD

Six Exciting and Memorable Episodes
Discovering America through the Eyes of Acclaimed Plein Air Artists
Check with your local PBS station for air dates and times (not showing in our area yet)

Far more than a “how-to” show, Plein Air, Painting the American Landscape is a celebration of our natural world, a visual retreat to our nation’s beautiful places and an exploration of the rich and colorful history of American landscape painting. From the founding of the Cape Cod School by Charles Hawthorne in 1899 and gathering of the Taos Society of Artists a few years later – to location demonstrations by today’s leading landscape artists – viewers will discover the roots of this uniquely American art form and why painting “en plein air” is once again at the forefront of American representational art.
