Artist's Statement
Water - it can range from a reflective puddle to an opaque fog, a delicate water drop to a torrential down pour, a blinding snow to a patch of black ice. I want to harness that diversity and explore watercolors from many under-appreciated perspectives. I want to experiment with big paper, unconventional textures, and intense shadow and contrast. I want to prove that watercolor is as dynamic and versatile as water itself.
