Pekka Halonen´s studio

"Sauna at Halosenniemi"

Oil on canvas 2013

Here is a work in progress shot.


As you can see I had some help from my new friend!
Oona add some of the finishing brushwork to this one.

Today we went to paint with the group of plein air painters in Pekka Halonen´s studio.
Pekka Halonen was one of the great "Golden era" painters in Finnish art.

Beautiful painting! Are you able to keep your feet warm while you paint in the snow?

Hi Stephanie

Thank you and yes. I usually have a pair of wool socks and winter boots that can handle quite cold temperatures. I also dress in layers to keep up with the weather :)
