  • This is part five of a muti-part series stemming from a recent trip to Florence Italy along with 10 other artists.- We traveled to the Hill town of San Gimignano for a day of painting watercolor in the open air. The subject in this work the valley below San Gimignano and rendering the rolling hills and farmlands with expressive brush stroke in watercolor. I demonstrate different ways to think about using the watercolor brush, and the philosophy or mind set behind these marks.

    The variety of “greens” you have created is incredible! I liked your comment about stopping earlier and trying some later additions in your minds eye! Unfortunately I don’t seem to have an easily accessible eye in my mind!

    Wow this is gorgeous, love Tuscany! I also like starting the painting without a sketch with oils and pastels but haven't tried that with watercolor. I will definetely have to try, you got some amazing effects and incredible looseness, which I find harder to achieve with watercolors than other mediums.

    So far I have watched two of your videos and am finding your process amazing, I really need to try not to draw first but just put paint to paper. This is something I am planning to do sooner rather than later, maybe then I can produce something a bit less structured. 👏👏

    Been there in San Gimignano, a lovely Tuscan town! We went to see the 13 famous towers ( Tuscan's Medieval NYC), however, you were painting from the hillside, which from a different perspective and angles. Interesting! Brought back many memories. The painting looked very nice, loved! Learning many new techniques from your video also. Thanks! 😌🙌💕
