My New Profile Picture

What do you think of this watercolor? Is it a watercolor? Not really. So what am I talking about? This is a watercolor effect generated with Adobe Photoshop! Should I be worried that technology is taking over real painting? NO. NOT AT ALL!
Nothing will replace sitting down with paint and brushes and creating with your own hand and mind.

Watercolor Wednesday's-My Beginning Watercolor Class of 2019!


Here is my beginning watercolor class. They passed with flying (watercolor) colors. I had them do a tropical sunset scene. They were taught how to do a sunset with 3-color gradient wash. For their first time, I thought it came out well. The classes are held at the Anton Art Center in downtown Mt. Clemens, Michigan.

Paris Graffiti Accepted into Michigan Watercolor Society Show 2019

My painting "Paris Graffiti" will be part of the 2019 MWS Exhibition in Bay City, Michigan. I did this painting from a trip to Paris and went down a Rue that had this wall of plastered posters and graffiti which I thought was very interesting. to add to the theme, I put a hint of someone stopping to observe the scene. I will keep you posted of any other further developments with the show.
