River life
It's hot outside, but we found emidiately peace when we went back to the river again. The beautiful sun, dragonflies who were nipping on everything, a little breeze. Yeah, a wonderful day and that's all what counts...

As I painted, I watched big fish leaping right before my eyes. I still wonder whether they were trout or something else. Regardless, I was able to paint in peace.

Today’s warmth creates a delightful atmosphere by the river. Dragonflies flew about in a dazzling array of colors and shapes.

This painting, which I created yesterday at the same location, features a lowered horizon that offers a fresh perspective. It's amusing how simply turning around can reveal an entirely different scene.

The flowers are in full bloom everywhere! Today, I discovered a lovely spot along the coast where I painted from a seated position, allowing me to shield myself from the wind.

Right now, I’m seizing the opportunity to paint amidst the vibrant rapeseed fields. The bright yellow blooms infuse me with positive energy.

I have been using the U.GO for several years now, and yes, I am still absolutely in love with this versatile and reliable box. Over time, I’ve grown to rely on all three sizes, and it really depends on how far I plan to walk or the size of the canvas or panel I intend to use that determines which one I choose to take with me for the day.
"As a full-time plein air artist, I work in all weather conditions and seasons. My work is recognizable by the thick layers of paint and the firm brushstroke. So I have some demands on my painting gear and brushes that I would love to share with you!
Hike & Paint is perhaps the best way to stay fit, and with my new U.GO 6"x 8" (small) it is even more enjoyable! This handy, compact pochade box fits perfectly in a small backpack, together with all my drawing and painting supplies.
For my large plein air works, I have been using the Mabef M23 for years. This easel is strong, robust and ideal for use in various weather conditions. Thanks to its sturdy design and high-quality materials, I can continue painting even in strong winds.
