Earl Hingston

Calligraphic, rhythmic, noticeable brushmarks, applied to the paper loosely, with confidence.

These are what add life and vitality to a painting. It's the speed of which the brush is drawn across the paper, or other support, which gives the painting its vitality.

When painting with watercolours the pure, clean, under-manipulated colour mixtures give the painting its special "glow".

Rhythmic expression of a subject is very important to me ... more than any other part of a painting, but the importance of design and composition cannot go unnoticed.

My hope is that viewers will look for, and appreciate, this different approach to exciting watercolour painting.
