Back from nearly four weeks painting en plein air in China, Eric Rhoads shares his discoveries about education-driven plein air bases, a booming watercolor scene, collaborative scrolls, and a frank art marketing conversation, all co-hosted by guest artist Paul Friederichsen.
Bonus: This interview includes a new Marketing Minute with Eric and Paul!
If you want more resources: PleinAir Magazine publishes widely on these topics; Eric runs Art School Live weekdays at noon (Marketing Mondays included), and we have a free ebook of plein air tips for anyone starting out. Keep painting, keep traveling, and we hope to see you at a workshop soon — maybe even in China.
