Day 1. Well this guy sure knows what the hell he is doing! What he lacks in social grace he makes up for in skill and knowledge. So much to learn and then put into practice!
“Indicate, don’t state.”
“Heaven and earth.”
“Mr. Bead”
“Water is life in watercolor.”
“Kiss of life.”
“Be gentle.”
“Paint in watercolor time.”
“Dance with the watercolor.”
“That’s what it wanted.”
“Paint what you love and love what you paint.”
“Economy of brush strokes. Don’t do in two what you can do in one.”
“Your picture is done when the major shapes are finished and in place. Details do not make the painting.”
“Pigment thick as vegamite.”
Day 3
He sounded like John Housman giving instruction but he certainly knew how to challenge us with his techniques and knowledge. I am absolutley knackered but in a very good way.
