Tip of the month: If you purchased watercolor paper in a pad, be aware that the most desirable paper comes by the sheet. They reduce the size of the paper in a pad to put the rubber binding around it, so it lays flat. |

Hello – and welcome to my web site! For over 30 years I have been an instructor of art. I love to paint with watercolor, and I also LOVE teaching! For 14 years at my gallery and studio in Wisconsin I hosted many of the country's best watercolor instructors. I recently semi-retired to Minnesota – and as I travel, I have been hearing that my method of painting is different from most instructors and really fun! I do it by moving the paper around and letting the wet paint shade the object, as you can see in the animation. I call it “Rock and Roll”! The colors come out so rich but still transparent and clean – most people don’t even think they are watercolor paintings because of the richness of color. I also teach the techniques of throwing paint for landscape painting, and teach collage, abstractions, pen and ink, and painting still life. I consider myself to be a creative artist with a passion for learning and sharing my knowledge. I hope you will enjoy my artwork, and perhaps purchase an original painting, print, card or sign up for one or more of the classes I am teaching - locally or around the country. Check monthly for new painting tips and upcoming shows. If you need additional information email me at Punkin@KathyKovala.com. Keep Learning! Sincerely, |
