BeckerArt FLOAT-YOUR-PIGMENT Newsletter May 14th Who Inspires You?

Published: Tue, 05/14/24

Hello

Welcome to the FLOAT-YOUR-PIGMENT Newsletter #467

With a bunch of travel and workshops behind me this May I have become so inspired from meeting and seeing so may different artists that just blew me away with their work. I am so excited to get into the studio and go out plein-air painting that I just can't wait until next week to paint at PACE 24 and meet as many artist as possible. There will be over 900+ artists at PACE this year so meeting and painting with other artists will not be very hard to do.

At PACE I will be demonstrating in the Legion Paper Booth and on Tuesday from 10:15 to 10:55 I will be onstage demonstrating for Cheap Joes. I will be using the new Legion Watercolor Panels with Holbein watercolors and Gouache.

In this weeks newsletter I will go over some of the artist's that have inspired me through the years.
