"In recent work, I have been continuing to develop my technique of supersaturating the paper and applying multiple washes of color (usually 15-20) to create depth of light and color in the background. I am also experimenting with different ways to apply and then remove watercolor to create the subject matter. The ink-work, too, is being further developed-- I recently discovered 'Rotring,' a new pen system produced in Germany that is by far the best ink pen I have ever used. These developing techniques and improved tools really help to keep the artistry and excitement alive, and keep me motivated to continue exploring our landscape."Welcome to the Artist In Residence Co-op Blog Spot. We are a collective art gallery in Enosburg, Vermont that exhibits the work of over 40 local Vermont artists. Each month, a group of our members are selected as featured artists to showcase in the gallery foyer. This blog is an additional space to feature and discuss these artists and their work.
