The process of creating a watercolor painting demands tremendous
patience and discipline. You build a painting – layer by layer – using thin veils of
low-valued glazes that take advantage of a watercolor’s incredible
light. The time-consuming process is challenging, rewarding, and at
times, magical.

Teaching others the watercolor process
is highly rewarding as well. You cannot rush a watercolor –
because there’s nowhere to hide within this medium. Unlike oils and
acrylics that allow you to cover up mistakes or turn them into
something new, the transparency of watercolors reveals your every
move to the viewer. This can be daunting to new and experienced
painters alike. But if you can embrace the process as meditational,
you will fall in love with the luminosity and magic.
