THE LUMINOSITY OF WATERCOLOR

 

I employ the medium of watercolor by using transparent washes built up with delicacy and attention to detail while still remaining loose and free. There is much to be said for the beauty of watercolor portraits.  

There is an intimacy and elegance that the medium gives to a painting. Watercolor has a feeling of something precious and jewel like, something to be cherished much like the pet that is being portrayed. I have always been especially fond of watercolor and believe that it makes captivating and wonderful portraits.
