[Timothy C. Tyler]

I just taught a class where we painted outside a lot. The students got some very nice things. The bad thing was we also had a nice studio and these were driven students. So, they would go in at night and "fix" their plein aire stuff under weak bulbs w/o reference. The lovely exciting effects they had literally sweated for were lost.

I would suggest when you get information save it. You may then work from (a photo say) but keep the knowledge gained outside. The soft effect of the indirect light on you model looks like it's inside near a good window...which is great, it just doesn't read as outside.
