Here are the latest batch to start off September. As usual they are a mixture to show the variety and versatility of watercolour with a little personal bias towards artists I particularly like.
The wonderful Shirley Trevena. I have her first book and video, but to try and emulate her is not for the faint hearted!
Janet Rogers - The excellent American artist
Sir William Russel Flint - a legendary artist from the earlier era
Bev Jozwiak.
The ever creative Bev is doing some painting on Yupo paper
Jonathan Kwegyir Aggrey - I should have known!!!

Karl Martens.
I recently came across this interesting artists who specialises in birds. His paintings are actually quite large.

Yuko Nagayama.
Unusual subject of a portrait for Yuko but brilliant as usual. Eat your heart out Ward!

Janine Gallizia.
Her paintings have this amazing ethereal look. I believe she's one of the founders of "The Art of Watercolour' magazine.
Jean Haines
Very loose - maybe just a tad too loose - only my opinion.
Joseph Zbukvic - the well-known Australian Artist.
That's it folks. Hope you like them.

Peter, Jonathan Kwegyir Aggrey is the artist's name. As always, I enjoy seeing the paintings you post!
I'm enjoying and admiring all the watercolor paintings you have posted, along with your own work. I've only started on this magical medium about a year ago and enjoy speculating which colors were used, how they were mixed, etc. One pigment that is frequently overlooked is Winsor/Newton's Potters Pink PR233, but in this latest batch of watercolor paintings, I can see where it might have been be useful. On its own it is a very weak pigment. However, PP is magical as a mixer when it comes to old buildings and, of course, sandy beaches and a real helper for skin tones. Give it a try by mixing it with the single pigment, transparent Daniel Smith colors you may have on your palette. Potters Pink was a game changer for me and I hope you may find it useful, as well. I've enjoyed following along with your WC journey, Peter.
Regards,
Mary
Thanks for comments Mary. I have Potters Pink by Winsor & Newton but found it on the weak side. I'll have to have another look at it.
