while taking a morning walk along South Street, I met two plein air artists, David Ohlerking and Chris Chappell. I wish I took a bit more clips but I didn't want to distract them while they were working.

it was very interesting to watch how they were painting. it seemed like they were placing the oil paint on the canvas with their brushes and mostly leaving the paint where it is. sometimes they would slightly shift the paint or redistribute it on the canvas. they don’t seem to “paint” as we usually would with a paint brush. instead, they’d thoughtfully lay the paint on the surface and distribute it when they saw fit.

these were based on 5 to 14 seconds clips.
