My granddaughter and I visited the Reynold's Gallery and the Visual Arts Hand Workshop Galleries. Ray Kass' work is so big! We decided he had to make buckets of wash to paint such large pieces. Just looking at his work explained allot about this week's assignments.
I found a lovely watercolor, by Nell Blaine called "Fishing Boats," at the Visual Arts Center that I just loved. It was small compared to Kass' work. The vibrant colors were applied in a watery wash with loose broad brush strokes... The image is implied and though there is little detail, the mast and boats are rendered perfectly. I can only aspire to paint so loose!
