The Best Western, where the WSO convention was held, can be seen across the harbor at Brookings. Stephen Quiller was the juror for the exhibition, gave some excellent critiques, and made a demo painting on the last day of the conference. A special technique he used in the painting involved laying in a thin glaze of color with acrylics to tone the paper, then using watercolors through the remainder of the process. The acrylic wash does not seal the surface or form a resist as I might have expected. And the overlain watercolor layers can be removed down to the acrylic paint without removing the previously dried acrylic wash.
A week-long workshop being taught by Stephen Quiller for 30 WSO members should be wrapping up shortly today.
