I have not painted in the last two days. I am in Kansas City visiting my children. My daughter works the night shift and will be sleeping until 11:00 AM. I am an early riser and will paint in the morning.
In the meantime I purchased two books:
1. A Celebration of Light
2. Botanical Illustration Course with the Eden Project
My daughter also left me a library book called "Buying a Piece of Paris." Ah, the Paris dream. I wish I knew all the French words in the book, but author has the same delima. I am sure at this time she knows more French than me.
About Me
- Jane Huggins
- I am a watercolor artist. My paintings are bold, and full of color. Most of my work takes time. The world around me is my inspiration. A camera is in my hand whereever I go. I like a painting to be strong enough in composition to be appealing from across the room, but when viewed up close I my audience should enjoy the details. Watercolor has so many attitudes and possibilities, I am always exploring. Most people comment on how unforgiving watercolor is. If good paper is used it is very forgiving. Being and educator I love to teach classes. I first instruct students on how to control brushes, the flow of paint and of course the water. I teach beginning to advanced students. Many opt to pay a little more to use my supplies solely. This is an excellent way to learn that success depends on the foundation of good materials. This is very cost efficient for beginners also. I always say there is an artist in everyone.
