2022 Laguna Beach Plein Air Invitational Artist
Judd Mercer
Denver, Colorado
“Plein air is like meditation. You have to slow way down, pay attention. When you feel a place with all your senses, take your shoes off and touch the grass, smell the wind, you get a true sense for it. It’s then you realize how utterly amazing just being in the world is. And that’s the feeling I try to capture when I paint.”
