ROSE GARDEN
Watercolor - 11x14
Artists are famous for their creative lingo and for us it sounds perfectly normal. For someone on the outside, maybe not!
- The watercolorist keeps graduation in mind when she does her wash
- The color painter often loses her values
- The pastelist is careful not to damage her tooth when she rubs her stump across it
- The pen-and-ink artist is extremely appreciative of an outstanding nib
- The plein air artist believes in squinting
- The oil painter likes to lay it on fat-over-lean to keep the push/pull effect happening
- An airbrush artist whittles carefully for hours on her masking then it throws away
