Hi there! Today I thought I’d do a “what’s in my plein air bag video.”
I could make this short and sweet and tell you “I have too much in my bag.” I weighed it this morning and it came to a whopping 20lbs! So if you ever wondered about why I’m huffing and puffing in my vlogs you now know the reason why. As I go through my bag I will chat a little bit about why I do go heavier with certain gear and some things to consider when picking equipment for painting en plein air. I will try to list all of my gear below but if you have any questions, or suggestions of your favourite gear, please put them in the comments.
Thank you to everyone that has taken the time to like and share my videos and subscribed to the channel, I appreciate you. I hope you have a great day, thanks for watching!
