Ralph Oberg - mountain painter - is an avid mountaineer and wilderness backpacker. His paintings reflect a deep love of the wilderness and unspoiled nature. Painting both outdoors and in his studio, Ralph captures the beauty of both the landscape and the wildlife that inhabits it. As a long time member of Plein Air Painters of America, Ralph is a gentle and kind teacher to those who want to learn the art of painting.

In this conversation, you will hear:

1. How Ralph's skills as an artist grew by learning from other accomplished artists.

2. His sense of urgency in preserving the high glaciers whose existence are threatened.

3. The importance of developing a strong work ethic as a painter and the need to always be honing your skills as a painter.

4. He also laments the sport-i-fication of plein air painting - but also sees the benefits of it.

5. It's never too late to learn and enjoy painting.
