Recognizable in his paintings is the influence of various artists, including Goya, Ensuart, Vin, Sander, Muller, and others, however he continues to produce art today that is aggressively individualistic.

Unlike my tutorial on painting roses(which have a “cup and bowl” shape) today we will be using the “trumpet” form. Lilies, Bluebells, Morning Glories, Fuchsias, Daffodils, Columbines and Lilies of the Valley all have a “trumpet” shape and (you guessed it!) are shaped like trumpets—or, more specifically, like a cone with a flared opening. Since thes...
After sketching, I set out my Mijello Fusion Leakproof paletteand found the colors I wanted to use. If you’re like me and paint outdoors, you may have trouble with your paint drying too fast (I did). It helps to use a spray bottle filled with water and “mist” your palette occasionally. This will keep your paint moist throughout the painting process...
When painting expressively, you want to work with the flow of paint and water to get the gesture of the flower, its essence, but not every little detail. I usually make three passes on a painting of this sort—the first wash being the quickest and lightest, just to get things going. In this case, I put down a few light washes of color over the entir...

You must move quickly since timing is everything in watercolor. If the paper dries completely before you can go back in with more paint, you will get hard edges. I...
The last phase is for small tweaks and finishes, and this is where I am most likely to get into trouble! It is easy to lose the fresh feel of a painting when you start to “noodle” around with details. Instead, try to keep this phase short and sweet, and stop when you think you are almostfinished! Here you can see I’ve gone in with some blue to add ...
Bridge over a Pond of Water Lilies. In 1893, Monet, a passionate horticulturist, purchased land with a pond near his property in Giverny, intending to build something "for the pleasure of the eye and also for motifs to paint." The result was his water-lily garden.
Bart Exposito’s geometric paintings don’t draw from utopian ideals or a revision of abstraction, but rather the cold neutrality of graphic design. More pop than pop, his flat pantone coloured canvases celebrate the zen-like fizz of commodified nothingness.
