Teresa Bellon

Teresa Bellon is a Spanish illustrator who caught my eye with the young Frida Khalo piece that's above. I love the color, simplicity, and shape design, in addition to the distressed printmaking texture that gives her works a hand-crafted touch.

Teresa's illustrations often depicts jungles, oceans, and people generally on the go. I don't know about you, but they make me want to get up and start moving!

Watercolor Art: How to Paint Water

Add waves, wet sand, and beautiful sunsets to your watercolor art!

Why not use a water medium to paint water? It just seems logical! You can get stunning results for painting seascapes with these painting techniques for creating different types of moving water: gentle waves, rolling waves, water crashing on rocks and rolling over wet sand, with Grant Fuller in his video, Painting the Sea in Watercolor. The results: watercolor art you'll be proud to hang on the walls of your beach house! (Hey, a girl can dream, right?)

Make Waves

How to Paint WaterNo seascape is complete without a few waves, right? Learn how to paint water in motion using just four washes, and get painting tips for creating hard and soft edges, both of which are necessary when it comes to waves. You'll also discover ways of capturing the reflective sense of shallow water on wet sand, and use colors of various temperatures, both warm and cool, to achieve a sense of depth and dimension in your painting.

Preview Painting the Sea in Watercolor with Grant Fuller now to learn some fun painting techniques for creating soft edges in your watercolor art. Then, head over to ArtistsNetwork.tv to stream the full video!

You can also download or purchase the DVD of Painting the Sea in Watercolor; whichever format works best for you! Just head over to NorthLightShop.com.

Grahame Baker Smith
UK illustrator Grahame Baker Smith is known for his interpretation of classics like Pinocchio and Robin Hood, as well as contemporary works like Leon and the Place Between and FArTHER. His work for the latter garnered him the Kate Greenaway Medal in 2011 (a British medal awarded each year for "distinguished illustration in a book for children").

Smith has also done diverse projects like album cover art for Robert Plant, and an animation project on which he is currently working.

He works in both traditional and digital media, varying his approach as the project demands. Some of his pieces look like assemblages, some are straightforward, some lighter, some darker.

In taking on the challenge of a series of stamps for the Royal Mail marking the 150th anniversary of the publication of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, Smith has neatly sidestepped the problem of getting around the definitive interpretations of Tenniel and Rackham by taking a distinctly modern approach.

A Reflective Moment with Watercolor Artist Thomas Schaller [feedly]

A Reflective Moment with Watercolor Artist Thomas Schaller
// Artist's Network

It's no secret that light itself is a sought-after subject for artists. It's changing nature and the way it can alter the mood of a scene may be one reason, not to mention the contrast it provides to shadows, for example. In the new eMagazine, Thomas Schaller: Watercolor Touched By Light, you'll learn how this artist has been inspired by light, as well as how he masters portraying it in his extraordinary landscape and cityscape paintings. Here's a peek at what he has to share.

Watercolor artist Thomas Schaller, featured at ArtistsNetwork.com

Trinity Church (watercolor, 18×13) by Thomas Schaller (Pin this!)

Thomas Schaller On . . .

His Typical Working Method: About 75 percent of my work is made in the studio, but 100 percent of what I do is informed by my plein-air work. If I'm not able to complete a painting on site, I do a small sketch–not to record what the subject looks like, but rather to capture the effects of light and the mood I'll want to convey in the final piece.

His Greatest Challenge: In the study of Buddhism, there's the belief that the act of letting go takes more strength and courage than the effort to hold on. So, to relax, to breathe, to reduce the stress of expectation and the desire for "perfection" are my biggest challenges.

The Most Interesting Thing About the Way He Works: I never sit down. I move around constantly, and I also move my painting around a good deal. I hold it upright, tip it this way and that, and use gravity to manipulate and guide the flow of my washes for various effects.

Learn more about Schaller's watercolor painting techniques in Thomas Schaller: Watercolor Touched By Light, and stay tuned–soon I'll announce an exciting collection of books that you won't want to miss.

Yours in art,
Cherie
