My local watercolor guild here in Sandy Utah is interested in having an on-line presence and sharing their work in one central place that is easy enough that all can participate. I have been working on getting the blog set up and will be adding more fun things soon. Please take a moment to go explore the home page, along with an experiment for textures page and get signed up to follow us by e-mail. The guild's new blog address is: Sandy WC Guild (Click the name and it will take you to the blog).
This blog isn't just about watercolor, it will feature many other things.
All water/wet media will be included, along with monthly challenges for our show & tell (which I hope we will start doing at our local monthly meetings beginning 2014), (you can play along with these challenges too and post your results on your blog! Simply leave us a link in the comments.) There are additional pages that share experimental results at the moment, but I will be posting techniques for: stenciling, carving textures, acrylics, inks, book reviews, etc. etc. The possibilities are endless. Please join us and don't forget to leave comments!
Feedback is always monitored due to spammers, so your comments will not appear until they have been approved. You may also share a link to your own website or blog in your comment. We would love to venture over and take a peek at what you are creating.
If you are interested in sharing a technique you have created, or a link to a good video you think would help inspire us, please leave the link in the comments and I will check it out. If you host free tutorials, we would love to know about them, if you have written a book, a pdf zine or an e-book, again we would love to know about it.
I recently set up a Facebook Group as well, but to keep life simple for me, I will be posting only to this blog and to the Sandy WC Guild blog. No sense in duplicating my efforts.
Not sure I shared this work in progress (above) with you all yet, but this is an enlarged area of berries in a bush taken from a photo I took up in Idaho at a fish hatchery. I got kind of carried away with making the little streets on the leaves to make them look like maps viewed from space. So, OK, I'm not always "photo realistic". :-D
