Painting Light and Color in the Modern Landscape is a guidebook to help artists of all skill levels to create watercolors that are imbued with light and mood by working with value and color. For beginners, the basic materials and techniques are covered in detail, based largely on questions the author had when he was learning and the questions that his students ask him today. The remainder of the book is filled with practical lessons intended to advance the overall knowledge and confidence of the reader.
One aspect that will be unique to this book is that the author will share personal, disastrous learning experiences with readers as a means of both encouragement and entertainment and to illustrate the point that anyone can learn, anyone can improve and anyone can master this particular subject matter.
In addition to 12 individual step-by-step demonstrations , approximately 27 gallery pieces with detailed explanations of the painting techniques and concepts used to create the painting.
Michael Reardon has been working in watercolor for more than 25 years, both as a fine artist and an architectural illustrator. His knowledge of watercolor is extensive and refined. The common theme throughout Michael's painting career has been the depiction of architectural subjects and their interaction with the natural world. His award winning paintings are held in private collections in the United States and abroad, and he is a signature member of the American Watercolor Society, the National Watercolor Society, Watercolor West, and the California Watercolor Association. Michael's work is represented by the Thomas Reynolds Gallery in San Francisco. Feature articles by Michael or about his work have been published in several magazines, including Watercolor Artist, Watercolor, L'Artdel' Aquarelle, Southwest Art, and Plein Air. His paintings have also been featured in Splash 10 and Splash 12.
Michael teaches numerous workshops each year and around the country and internationally. In the past six months, he has taught workshops in Canada, Italy, Seattle, and Dallas. Upcoming workshops include Mendocino, North Dakota, and San Jose. Michael is also in demand as a demonstrator for art associations.
