Plein Air Paintings are small oil sketches done out on location. I have 2 different size paint boxes:  a small Thumb Box that holds 6x8 panels. It is light weight and easy to carry

while hiking, also taking up little space when traveling;  and an Open M Pochade Box that will hold up to a 12x16 panel.  It is a little heavier but will hold more art supplies.

Keeping it in a backpack with wheels makes hauling easier. When going outside I use a limited palette of no more than 6 colors. usually taking Cobalt or Ultramarine Blue,

Permanent Rose or Cadmium Red Light, Sap Green, Burnt Sienna, Cadmium Yellow Light and Titanium White.
