State Fair Plein Air

State Fair Plein Air

The hot sun beat down on the blacktop as shuffling feet moved from vendors to attractions and nestled between the cows and food, away worked the artists. For two days plein air artists painted the Wisconsin State Fair, subjects varied from the ferris wheel to the farm animals. On the second day, early morning in the quiet Exploratory Grounds the quick paint competition got underway giving painters a chance to paint some greenery and park scenes.
