Textured Watercolor Paintings - My invention!
I want to share with you a new technique I developed while "playing" in my studio. I rather enjoy the visual interest of palette knife work on oil paintings. I decided to create texture in my watercolor paintings using Daniel Smith Watercolor Ground. Watercolor Ground is a product that is usually used to coat a canvas or other surface to accept watercolor paint. So I bought a set of palette knives and got to work. Sketch the painting. Add watercolor ground and allow it to dry overnight (or longer as needed.) Then painted it. I even did a demo on it for Rio Bravo Watercolor Society back in September. My dear friend Dorian was very persuasive. I really like the effect and I think you will too. I will not use it all of the time; but it is a fun and interesting "game to play" while staying in my favorite medium - Watercolor. Just as all of my paintings - it is UV Archival Krylon Varnish Sealed. Then just pop in a frame. |
It's My Job to Paint and Your Job to Pick the Framing!
3 ways to Frame Original Paintings
UV Archival Varnish and place in the frame of your choice
Mounted to a Canvas with a Deckle Edge
Traditional Matted and Framed under Plexi-glass
3 Types of Prints
Metal Print with Glossy Finish
Fine Art Print on Cotton Rag Paper
Giclee on Canvas
Any painting can be made into a print, mug, scarf, cards or more.
Something for everyone.

New FramingThis is one of the new framing options. This painting is bonded to the canvas and sealed with UV Archival Krylon Varnish. The canvas can be shallow like this one or we can use a thicker / deeper one.

Standard FrameBecause I hate the glare of glass or plexi glass
you will find all of my framed paintings handled this way. The painting is bonded to an acid free surface and sprayed with UV Archival Krylon Varnish. No mat, no glass, no glare. OH my! I think you will love it too. (and if you don't like the frame, buy it NAKED!) |
