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 to turn the challenges unique to water media into textural advantages.
Nicholas Simmons incorporates blooms, 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. This approach is perfect for artists striving to achieve a looser look while still maintaining control of the final painting. The workshop is approximately 2 hours in length with bonus tracks of music written and performed by Nicholas Simmons.
