During April I took part in a 30-day outdoor painting challenge known as #PleinAirpril – if you want to see lots of lovely artwork, use that hashtag to search on instagram or pinterest. So much good stuff out there!
Anyways, for my challenge I used gouache in a toned paper sketchbook. See below for my travel gouache supply list.

Painting outside is a huge challenge, but always worth the effort. Some days I felt like I was making good progress, and others I felt really frustrated. It ebbs and flows. If you would like to watch my experience, I have a long “recap” video which shares my biggest lessons learned during the month.
