The Kenai, En Plein Air
Kenn Backhaus leads the trio of visiting artists to Seward, Alaska, on the Kenai Peninsula, and beautiful Resurrection Bay – gateway to Kenai Fjords National Park. With the towering Chugach Mountains as a backdrop, the artists paint in a derelict boatyard. Backhaus demonstrates his approach to painting en plein air and discusses the influences that shaped him as an artist. The activities of this episode's artists are examined in context of earlier nationally known Alaska plein air artists and adventurers – Eustace Ziegler and Ted Lambert. Professor Kesler Woodward provides commentary and examples.
