In this video I discuss my current art and artist inspiration and some great books.
I share a little watercolour exercise in relaxation , by creating a background with my round brush on 140 lb watercolour paper. I show a few examples of mark making once the background dries, although I demonstrate this on another dried painting.
I chat about reproducing my art into canvas and giclee or 100% cotton rag prints. I show what my certificate of authenticity looks like and share my recent prints and how I was inspired to paint them.
One print is titled "Flourish" and the other "Find Your Light". "Flourish" was inspired by a class I took by artist, Pam Garrison.
