Plein air is a 360° sense stimulation, whilst chasing light & shadow... (And avoiding flies, bugs leeches, snakes, spiders etc). The sheer joy of witnessing moments in time, skies, plants, animals...dealing with paint, canvas & weather! When a painting works, your heart sighs... When an artlover buys it the heart sings... There are many women & men who work together in Sthn Highlands, NSW. If you're looking for a group, ask at your local gallery.
U don't need terps, you could use Zest-it or other alternatives. Oils don't cause anything if you handle it normally. I've used water mixable but it's just not as good to me as regular oils.
So that one guy that’s allergic should switch to the Geneva paint or artisan oil paint it cleans up with water . With Geneva paint you don’t clean your brushes and you dip them in oil they’re always in oil there’s no reason to clean your brushes
The painter who developed an allergy to Turpentine could perhaps try Water mixable oils - no solvent needed at all. I use them and they're really good - just like traditional oils but you clean your brushes etc with water and use linseed oil as a medium.
There are ways to do oils without solvents these days. Gamblin solvent free medium, Terpenoid natural, neither have those pesky hydrocarbons that cause allergies.
Best program on plein air painting I’ve seen
I wish abc would do more art/painting videos.

Great work. I really admire those that can draw and paint. Keep the magic alive.
와~!
멋진 풍경과 현장에서 그려지는 작품과 영상이 훌륭합니다!
Well done expose. The light and colors in Australia is special indeed.
Interesting film. I can’t help noticing that there appear to be no women in the group.
There is a lot of room in the world for many kinds of art- pick your favorite.
Thanks for sharing this 👌 NC USA 🇺🇸
Great stuff!
Starving artist we will always be
Water mixable oils are wonderful and don’t need turpentine.
How’s that Tom & Jerry situation you blokes are having
I can't take oils or terps, so I chose water based oils, they work wonders and are non-toxic and clean up great.
