Just plein cool: Sylvania Plein Air Festival celebrates spur-of-the-moment art
Sylvania will soon be awash with painting as the second annual Sylvania Plein Air Festival begins Sunday and runs through the following week. The purpose of plein air, which translates from French as “painting outdoors” is to capture the majesty of the great outdoors on location. No painting in an artist studio, it’s about getting outside and painting what you see in front of you. The lighting of the sky, the position of the sun, everything. It’s about capturing one glorious moment in the medium of paint and brush. Katie Cappellini, executive director of Red Bird Sylvania, which is hosting the festival, said that response to the event from artists all over North America has been huge. “Plein air is making a huge comeback nationally and somehow we tapped into that movement and we have artists coming from all over the country and Canada to paint Sylvania, it was limited to 125 and that filled up in April.”
