All amazing work. Watercolors are not easy at all. I am blown away by the artists who can do realism with watercolor.

Beautiful! Thanks for sharing it. Are you Jewells related?!



Bold contrasts!

How splendid, all.......... Here's one from my fav's..........always unique:::::::::::

Please post your favorite watercolor artists.

Just wanted to share a book I'm reading.

Her book on Powerful Watercolor Landscapes is excellent!

I had a chance several weeks ago to meet Bill Holkham personally. He has so many beautiful paintings.

Al Ng has really developed these into a creative art form.

Check out Michael Vigliotti's many beautiful paintings:

Discovered Bonnie Fernandez:

Congrats. Alfred ! clap clap clap.....

...and Congrats to Al Ng who will be included in the next Splash for this beauty!

the level of technical skill is mindboggling...then you combine his masterful design ability in creating an intricate composition.
i'd all but kill to own a denny bond original!

Marlene...I'm not asking my question well. I know he can.
I guess its a matter of taste and how a person defines watercolors.

***********
I have enjoyed Vavara Harmon's watercolors:

In my thinking....passion & imagination...

warren, only if you could...and denny clearly can.
he is in a league of his own. i check his portfolio every week without fail.

Marlene...I am truely amazed at such realism.

If you did not know...you could not tell the difference in a watercolor or a photo.

My question...if you wanted to create a mood or a painting that appeared that way
would you go for that degree of realism?

Kip..I have followed Ken Powers' beautiful watercolors as well.

Truly notable, consistent, unique:::Cher Odum (love the bio, too....worth a read)..........



Thanks, Kip

Very nice, Vivian.

The beauty is in the creativity, Vivian.

Compared to the others, maybe not 'notable', but the lovely comments are very encouraging.....

like this, raffi?

Right you are Raffi. Few can match the style of Andrew Wyeth whose work took on the look of a finished oil but he worked in watercolor, gouache, and egg tempura. I have long been a fan of the Wyeths. For a number of years I lived close to the museum in Chadds Ford and went there countless times just to study the works of Wyeth and others.

Many have the preconceived idea that watercolor must follow a certain path, namely, a loose style in which a splashed on effect is the only one desirable. That is one approach. Another approach is to use watercolor as a defined and thought out rendition, showing detail as one might expect from an oil painting. Gouache is also a medium that makes detailed works that compare to oils. I have seen watercolors on FAA that compare with oils. Very good!

John's transparent watercolors are amazing.

Oh goodness, these are AMAZING!

Not watercolor Warren, but if you really dig impressions like Virginia's, you may enjoy Allen Lehman. Tuscan Doorway would be my suggestion.

Jenny you are too modest. One after another your work is outstanding.

Thanks...both outstanding.



My eye is drawn to beautiful impressions.
I met Virginia Potter prior to coming to FAA.

the one and only....denny bond......what a portfolio!

Sorry Warren---You took mine

Alfred's Great

Alfred Ng's outstanding watercolors were one of the first that I began to follow.
