The artists at UGallery blend the tradition of watercolor techniques with their own contemporary style. Read what watercolor artists Judy Mudd and Jill Poyerd have to say about their preferred medium:
“Watercolor is different from other mediums in that it inserts itself into the process. When first learning watercolor, you try to control it just as you would other mediums. But over time you realize you, along with gravity, are participants with watercolor and allowing it to move, run and merge are what makes watercolor so beautiful.” - Watercolorist Judy Mudd
“My process takes a fairly long time. When working in watercolors, my preparation process is extensive. And then, as I paint, each layer needs to dry completely. That can take a full day or overnight… and there are many layers.Painting in oils takes time as well, although it involves less preparation and fewer layers(the way I paint).” -Watercolorist Jill Poyerd
