10 Things you NEED when pleinair painting in the Mountains!
What to bring TO pleinair painting outdoors OR in the mountains?
If you like going painting outdoors to the unvisited path to find the best locations for your pleinair landscape paintings, then this list could help you pack the essentials to your next adventure!
BACKPACK
TRIPOD
FOLDING CHAIR
PAINTING EASEL

MEDIUM
CLEANING CLOTH OR PAPER
WATERSPRAY
PAINTING SURFACE
BRUSHES
That would be the MUST have! and you will be ready for your next mountain landscape adventure! There are a few more things I would add, but they are not necessary really, like an umbrella (good for light rain or over killing sun) or a panel carrier, which I made here, which only works for oils, since gouache and watercolours dry hyper fast!
