"Textures - Old Crookhaven Heads Lighthouse"

Most of my work is in watercolour (watercolor) though I also work with other mediums.

I have been painting in watercolour for over ten years and am more passionate about it now than ever. Watercolours when done well are hard to beat. They have a fluid, spontaneous quality speaking of confidence, skill and a clear message of what the artist wanted to say.

In addition to this site I have started another one for those interested in painting watercolours called www.watercolordemos.com. It is a resource to my students and anyone interested in the skills required to paint watercolours. This site is very new and will be developed over time.

I also have a blog I started in June 2010 which has useful tips and other information you may be interested in. The blog address is: http://joecartwrightswatercolourblog.blogspot.com/

Under resources you can find demonstrations and articles which may be of use in your own watercolour work. I have also included some links to other sites I have personally found useful and entertaining.

I run weekly art lessons, specialising in watercolour, at the Nepean Art Society, at Penrith, as well as a number of week long workshops in January of each year.

I hope you enjoy browsing. Please come back from time to time to see what I am up to.

Joe
