Whenever painting in northern New Mexico, I enjoy plein air in the early morning. Even in the summer, the morning air is crisp, clean and cool. Finding shade, one can stand and paint, and or contemplate, the landscape for hours while the day is heating up. I do a number of small paintings and work up to larger ones in watercolor. The wet painting dries in minutes. There is a lovely solitude and quietness that the environment brings. A variety of landforms is within a 360-degree view: ancient volcanoes, chimney rocks, sandstone cliffs, mesas and desert valleys are spread before you.
