I just completed a 5-day watercolor workshop in Fallbrook, California, taught by Joseph Zbukvic, a modern master of watercolor. Joseph completed over 10 demonstration paintings, all the while drumming into us students the basics of how he sees things, and how he paints. He was completely free and generous with his insights and information, and spent a lot of time with students individually, helping us each to master the areas where we just "didn't get it". What a great teacher! I recommend his workshop to all watercolorists, particularly those who are intrigued by the landscape, and want to paint directly, without endless thin washes, to capture a scene quickly with the sparkle and immediacy of watercolor. Here's our class; Joseph is in the middle with the "Z+U" shirt:
I've posted Joseph's demos and my own workshop paintings on my Facebook art page. Enjoy!

Hi Jim, Just got your newsletter and will add myself to follow your blog. Great to meet you and paint with you!
I should have added that I did two blog posts on the Zbukvic workshop. Trying to apply what I learned but am having right brain/left brain confusion!
