About the Event
In this live demonstration, American Watercolor Society Signature member Thomas W. Schaller will walk attendees through a painting process which draws on dreams, memories, and invention as much as on real-world observation.
Schaller describes the painting process he will share in the demo:
Elements of dreams, memory, and pure invention are just as critical to my work as are any components of observed reality. They are simply another way to “see”. My aim is to express the difference between merely “looking” at the worlds we see around us as well as within.
Schaller is a winner of the 2024 Arthur Ross Award by the Institute of Classical Architecture & Art, the 2024 Raphael Award, the Alpha Rho Chi Medal at OSU, a Graham Foundation Grant, and he is a two-time winner of the prestigious Hugh Ferriss Memorial Prize. He is the author of three books, The Art of Architectural Drawing, and Architecture in Watercolor – winner of an AIA Award of Merit. His new book, Thomas W Schaller: Architecture of Light is published by Penguin Random House. His best-selling DVD, Watercolor: The Power of Design is published by Streamline Media. His online courses, Fine Art Mentorship and the Power & Poetry of Drawing are hosted by Terracotta LLC.
