Beginning Watercolor Class
Visual Arts Center
Spring 2017
Full disclosure: this artist has had formal training...
But these look like they have too!
This is such a strong piece because the artist had painted the exact same subject matter earlier...
strong sense of depth, palette and shadow...
wonderful eye travel and repeating shapes, it sets a great atmosphere...
Told this artist his work reminds me of Carolyn Lord . This is going to be a gift to a child commemorating a family vacation...love when art can make so many wonderful connections!
This wonderful study came from a student who said she could never loosen up...not true at all!
depth of the water, tonal values in clouds and treatment of foliage show wonderful texture! Another Carolyn Lord fan perhaps?
Loose clouds and definite planning of techniques and palette gives this landscape a convincing sense of space!
My only regret this class session is that it did not last longer! I hope to see many of these wonderful people back in my class in September.
But in the meantime wishing all...happy painting!
