"I never leave home without my painting box. As the saying goes. I go outdoors to paint at least once a week, whatever the weather. Painting Plein Air is my way of writing a story with color. The colors that I see in nature is put on my paper or canvas. Some plein air paintings are done as a reference to a larger studio painting. " K. A. McMahon 2010
