This week at Brush-Paper-Water...


Cabins in the Sky, 20" x 20"
watercolor
Nancy Calhoun

I'd known Nancy Calhoun for many years, but it wasn't until we started working together in a cooperative gallery that I really got to know her. She's a delightful person and a wonderfully creative artist, pushing the technique of masking and pouring her paintings to create incredibly detailed finished works. In addition to her experimental approach, Nancy is also an excellent traditional watercolorist -- painting scenes from the Sierras as well as her signature bears.

Please take a peek at Brush-Paper-Water to see more of Nancy's paintings and then link over to her website to see the whole range of her work.
