Ng Woon Lam Original Watercolor Painting

Ng Woon Lam Watercolor Painting

I designed the exciting light and shadows to react with thepeaceful atmosphere. I like the freshness of watercolor.John Singer Sargent and Winslow Homer are my heroes in watercolor painting.The medium was controlled and executed to its extreme freshnesswith courage and 100% confidence and 100% art skills + visual knowledge.How did I learn watercolor painting. Simple!! I slept with Sargent. Hahaha!!!I had 2 Sargent's painting books. For 2 years, I read them before I went to bed.Sometimes, I slept with them.

Michael said...: Thanks a lot. I don't think I've checked those out. Have you ever been to the Biltmore estate in Asheville, NC? He had done many portraits for the Vanderbilt family there.; 10:09 AM
