Scott West is hard at work, capturing what he can as shifting light and shadows change what he paints. He is engaged in a form of art called Plenn Aire.
A day mixed with clouds and sun, balmy temperature, and camaraderie. It’s a winning combination, as Scott West and David Kent could tell you.
The two of them were busy this past Saturday as they sat in front of The Polk County Democrat newspaper building, painting. They were engaged in a form of painting called Plenn Aire.
