Innovative Water Media |
"Unconventional and innovative, Nicholas Simmons brings a breath of fresh air to water-media techniques. Join the 2007 National Watercolor Society top prize winner as he works large-scale and reveals how challenges unique to water-media can be turned to the artist's advantage, with stunning results. He incorporates blooming, crawl-backs, bleeding and puddling, and demonstrates methods for integrating masked areas with wet-in-wet painting. Nick mixes watercolor with fluid acrylic, encourages the paper to buckle, and boldly wields a spray bottle to achieve textural effects. Anticipating his own tendencies, he works safeguards into his process, and offers compelling commentary along the way. This approach is perfect for artists striving to achieve a looser look, while still maintaining control of the final painting."

Layers Of Design In Watercolor |
"Linda Baker creates complicated watercolor paintings in a straightforward way in her first art instruction DVD.
