Plein Air
Art help: Perspective question?
For my homework I need to construct a view along a narrow town street. It’s supposed to be plein-air sketching but it’s raining outside so i can’t. Can anyone find me an image of a narrow city or town street?? Possibly somewhere in the UK? I’ve tried Googling “narrow town street” but nothing ever comes up… best image gets 10 points!!
How’s this?

I quite like the last one, but the first one would translate well into a sketch. (also, once you get the perspective and the structure right, you can add any English details you like)

Abstract Landscape Paintings – Painting From The Inner Light
The Impressionists were a genre of artists from the 19th century whose intent was to capture the effects natural light had on the landscape. To achieve this, they set their easels up outdoors. They called themselves “en plein air” artists which is a French expression that means “in the open air.” Some believe that painting outdoors expresses nature in a fuller way and allows the artist to capture the needed vibrancy and spontaneity in their work. Today the contemporary landscape artists are very much still “en plein air” artists, but there are a group of landscape artists that, while painting indoors, paint a light from a slightly different source.
These landscape artists tend to create work that is abstract or slightly abstract. And to understand their source of light, you have to understand the abstract artist. The abstract artist has a painting style that is all together very different. The general consensus is that the abstract artist paints from within where there is more emotional and expressive energy. So if indeed these artists are painting a light source it would make sense that they are painting not the natural light on the outer world, but an expression of the inner light from within.
Artists and critics have yet to classify all the genres of abstract art. So at this present time there does not appear to be a classification for abstract artists painting “the light from within.” But what does it really mean to paint this way?
First of all, not every abstract landscape painting is a result of an artist attempting to paint an obvious light source within their work. And those that do paint this way are generally unaware as to why they are doing it other than the fact that it may look intriguing. But considering what the light source represents from those abstract landscape artists that have spoken about it in plain words, it is something very soulful and connected with the individual. One way to explain it would be to say the light represents their our own souls connection with its source.
You see, without trying to re-create reality, some abstract landscape artists go within themselves to reveal on the canvas an essence of nature and also the source of nature, all while they are aware that the two are a part of themselves. The end result is something they consider spiritual, uplifting, or possibly healing. Of course, this is not to say that “en plein air” artists do not have these same emotions when painting, it’s just a different way to express the light source.

Where can I find art galleries in tokyo that carry american representational art?
I am a plein air landscape artist (based in California) looking to export my paintings to Tokyo, Japan. I’m searching for a way to find galleries there or an art representative. I do not speak Japanese.
I think you could ask directly they may help but I am not sure.
