En Plein Air
I ran across a painter who was doing some magnificent work with beautiful colours. I stopped and talked to him for a little bit and he was really very nice. His name is Illya Kagen and he said he usually likes to paint a little more realistic but was in the mood for some colour. Outside of some slight chilly winds it was a beautiful day to work outside. You can find out more about Illya here... http://www.illyakagan.com/

From what I can see in the image, that's not a bad painting at all! Sort of modern-day impressionism. Very generous of you to post his website!

I just got back from Illya's website - he is VERY good, judging by the thumbnails he's posted. Thanks for posting the address.

I made a note of his name for when I got home to search for more info and to include his website. I emailed him about this picture but haven't heard back yet. He is a very good artist.
