Today’s watercolor experiment: It is the time of year for sentiment. I was watching one of those seasonal movies that just put me over the edge. Actually, that’s not to hard to do. Sometimes Finding Nemo is too much for me. Before I knew it, I was slapping paint on some big paper. A big […]

Today’s watercolor experiment: I was trying to draw portraits today. I didn’t use scrap paper or sketch paper. Instead I used my good watercolor paper. It was disastrous. I erased the whole thing, except for bits here and there. Painting over another painting or drawing (with some remnants of the original still visible after the […]

The next master whose work the Tate Watercolor Manual* reviews is David Cox (1783-1859). The title of this section his called ‘Painting the Elements’. Often, it seems, Cox would paint scenes where the sky was in turmoil with high winds and dramatic coloration. The manual references Bull in a Storm as one of Cox’s most […]
Today’s watercolor experiment: After my warmup exercises (see Warmup – Storms) of creating storms in small vignettes (tempest in teapots, if you will), the el Niño in me decided to let loos on larger paper. I retrieved a block of my 12″x16″ paper from its hiding place, unwrapped it, carefully removed the black paper from the […]
