Watercolor Reimagined
Baltimore Watercolor Society ZOOM Meeting
Demo by Oregon artist Liz Walker, NWS, NWWS
Liz Walker has been creating watercolor and acrylic paintings for over 20 years. She is a sought-after instructor who paints every day and has developed innovative ways of transforming old paintings into brand-new works of art that have appeared in many national exhibitions.
In her demo, Liz will show you how to treat papers with matte medium, creating texture and pattern and demonstrate how she applies watercolor and gouache to this unique surface. There will be a discussion of winning color combinations, and an informative slideshow led by this award-winning instructor.
Liz uses familiar watercolor pigments and papers in a new way. Her use of acrylic matte medium creates a new painting surface from which color can be lifted out and reapplied without creating “mud”. It adds to and enhances traditional watercolor pigments, creating texture and areas of visual interest in paintings.
