John Keeling
The elusive and unpredictable nature of watercolor makes it both a challenge and a delight for me. With
watercolor I'm able to capture the essence of my subject. I seek out both lost and found edges, intentionally
balancing controlled definition to help you see with blurred edges to let you enter. In this way, I invite the viewer
to join me... to bring something of yourself to the work, to touch the paper with your experience, your memories,
your story.
I'm a painter, but I begin each piece by drawing. Using pencil or ink, I learn to "see" each subject before painting.
Once I have an understanding of the subject, I am set free to paint with spontaneity and joy!
