Virginia painter Kim Hall tries to quickly capture the light and essence of a scene in our quickly disappearing landscape. She enjoys the challenge of painting en Plein Air, or directly from life. There is no better way to capture a scene or a moment in time than being there in that moment. “Painting from life has taught me how to see as a painter.”
