STANDARDS AND ETHICS OF THE PROFESSIONAL PLEIN AIR PAINTER:
1. Artistic Purity: I will be dedicated to the pursuit of excellence of aesthetics
and craftsmanship in my work set by the historical standards in the Genre. I will practice and promote the traditional creative
process of Plein Air painting.
2. Presentation: I will endeavor
to enhance and ennoble the discipline of Plein Air painting by maintaining a dignity of manner in my behavior, the presentation
of my work and in all other forms of public contact.
3. Honesty:
I will promise to accomplish 90% of a painting on site. I will not call works painted in the studio or those painted from
photographs Plein Air work. I will be sure the public recognizes the differences between my Plein Air works and Studio works
by so labeling.
