The Watercolor Sketchbook
Eric Michaels favorite tool for en plein air painting is his watercolor sketchbook. Convenient, portable and unobtrusive, a sketchbook travels with him where ever in the world he goes to paint. Back in the studio, Eric developed oil paintings from those field studies.
"My sketchbooks have remained my faithful servants and friends throughout my entire career. They provide me with a cache of experiments and impressions, and allow me to capture the light and spontaneity of a location.".
