Plein Air Painter Brian Stewart


(Video link) Brian Stewart of Minnesota left a career in advertising to focus on plein-air painting and guitar playing. The short video is by Steve Niedorf, part of a series he's doing called "By Hand," about people who do things with their hands.

  1. What a wonderful video! And what beautiful work Brian does - his paintings are a delight to the eye! The beautiful colours, freshness, the story-telling and beauty in each of his paintings is so lovely. Thanks for sharing!

  2. I love it. Connecting with Nature is one of the most basic things every human should do. I think most of the people dont realise how much it helps us.

  4. Great video! I'm sad to add that Brian passed away in 2018 and is greatly missed by many. There's a lovely write-up about him here https://www.twincities.com/2018/10/06/local-painter-who-pioneered-modern-plein-air-method-dies-at-76/
