Plein air painting

And then you discovered plein air painting.
Instantly you were caught by the effect nature had on you.
Very fast you disappeared between shadow and light,
you seemed to be absorbed by the dusty gravel roads and
the arid bushes of the macchia. I could not tell if you were slowly
swallowed by nature, or if it was you disappearing and becoming
part of what surrounded you.
Then, when you had finished and you looked up at me, you told how you were
amazed by all the nature becoming alive, if you stood still, motionless, for several hours in one place.
