Let's face it, starting plein air painting is hard
❌
Starting is
overwhelming
So many choices for the right gear and a good easel setup. You are not sure where to start, the actual steps, what to paint, or how to practice and build a proper habit.
❌
Time is
short
Your schedule is already full. Time to paint is limited. You want to practice and get outside. It's hard to stay motivated, gear up for the weather, or paint with friends.
❌
Outside is uncomfortable
The light changes fast. Finding a good scene is hard. The weather is too hot, too cold, too sunny, too windy, or too buggy. Spectators distract you and interrupt your focus.
But plein air painting is super rewarding
🌿
Grow quickly
as an artist
Nature is the best teacher to help observe light, values, and color. It gives practice in composition and simplification. It helps refine your style with dynamic scenes.
🌿
Make supportive
friends
Get outside, have fun, and appreciate nature with friends. There are so many plein air workshops and conferences to meet great people, who are also learning and growing.
🌿
Paint fast
and loose
Plein air helps you paint quickly, make decisions, embrace constraints, and move on. Lively outdoor conditions keep your paintings fresh, unique, and interesting

Meet Joe G Your Instructor
I'm Joe G 👋 and I've painted almost exclusively outside, en plein air, for years.
But when I first started to paint outside, I struggled A LOT. I was uncomfortable in the weather and frustrated trying to figure it out. I was overwhelmed trying to learn on YouTube and buying the right gear.
Then I got intentional. I learned from experienced and professional plein air painters. I attended workshops, conferences, and got a mentor. I read a bunch of art books. I found the right gear for me, and my approach. I learned to plan ahead for the weather and find locations to paint. And I practiced a lot.
But most importantly, I focused on the essentials and doubled-down on the fundamentals. I built the proper attitude and mindset. I established a repeatable, enjoyable, step-by-step process.
Now I paint outside with confidence and comfort. My paintings have significantly improved. I travel to international workshops and conferences with minimal gear. I even sell my plein air paintings online, at markets, and in a gallery.
And guess the #1 thing I learned throughout this entire journey...
👉 How to refine the plein air process to the absolute essentials, while sticking to the fundamentals. That's the secret to long term artistic growth. You don't need a fancy easel, expensive paints, or the hand of Da Vinci. You just need to get outside with a proper plein air mindset, have a repeatable step-by-step process, and find a minimal setup and comfortable gear.
THAT RIGHT THERE is what inspired me to create 10 Day Plein Air Painting Essentials.
I want to share how you can start painting outside, form a consistent plein air habit, while staying comfortable, building confidence, and cutting out the frustrations. This course aggregates vast experience from workshops, mentors, books, and hundreds of my own paintings done completely outside, in the natural elements... in this super affordable online course.

Frequently Asked Questions
What skill level is this course for?
This course is best for beginner or intermediate painters. If you are completely new to painting, I suggest several weeks of inside studio painting fundamentals. Painting outside AND being completely new to painting is a big challenge! But if you have the inside painting basics, and want to get outside, to paint like the French Impressionists, this course is for you.
What Painting Medium?
This course is taught using gouache, due to its convenience for beginner plein air. But you can easily apply the principles to oil, watercolor, acrylic, soft pastel, or oil pastel.
What subjects?
This course focuses on landscape painting, outside, in nature, en plein air. Mountains, trees, rivers, oceans, lakes, sand dunes, clouds, gardens, etc. The course does not cover portraits or urban scenes.
What styles?
The course is best suited for those who prefer impression, expression, semi-abstract, loose, and painterly styles. It is not suited for those interested in photorealism or purely-abstract painting. Also, this is painting... not sculpture, origami, graffiti, or pottery, which are all cool, but not covered.
Do I need drawing skills?
No. This course is about painting outside, not tedious inside drawing exercises. While drawing and perspective experience can certainly help, the focus here are painting essentials like big shapes, values, composition... while getting outside and building a plein air habit.
How long do I have access to the course?
Forever. Lifetime access. How does that sound? This course never expires, unlike those expensive and zoom workshop classes, or monthly memberships.
When does the course start?
You have full access to all content immediately after purchase. No start dates, no end dates. No deadlines or drips making you feel rushed or waiting.
Can I really learn the essentials in 10 days?
Yes. This course teaches the essentials of plein air, in a digestible 10-day system. You can do 1 module per day, split them up, or space it out. You will learn the essentials, but you will need to continue to pain plein air beyond the course to imporve your art and have long term painting enjoyment.
Can't I learn all of this on Youtube?
Of course! But it will take you many more hours searching and watching and being distracted by cat videos and ads. Or you can follow the focused, step-by-step process in this course,.
Do I need to have a plein air easel before starting?
No. The course includes several specific recommendations to get started, and a full gear list, with affordable supplies! And remember, the focus is not a fancy easel or expensive gear. It's the mindset and habit of painting outside with the essentials!
Is there a guarantee?
Absolutely! 10 Day Plein Air Painting Essentials has a 7 Day 100% Satisfaction Guarantee. If you are not completely SATISFIED and HAPPY with 10 Day Plein Air Painting Essentials, then contact us within 7 Days for a full refund, no questions asked!
