A Frank Webb Watercolor Primer
Yesterday I posted an interview I did several years ago with Frank Webb. Frank began his art journey as an illustrator and that shaped the way he approaches painting. In Design Before Color, published in issue #66 of the New Palette Magazine, Frank takes us through the steps that he uses most successfully. For more information about the New Palette Magazine, click here. Enjoy!

At Home With Jimbo Bailey
So, I had this idea; Why not paint a scene on a typical 2 x 3-foot canvas that would have the look and feel of a stained-glass window? After several weeks of trial and error, I finally was able to paint a simple scene of a lighthouse using acrylics thinned down like watercolors and I painted both sides of the canvas to give it the right effect. I am happy with the result.

Unfortunately, her two classes at Cheap Joe's were canceled due to the Covid-19 restrictions in North Carolina. However, Leslie is learning to make videos from her home studio and what follows is her accordion sketchbook demo. Enjoy.

<p>Tom Lynch was recently featured in two editions of the <a href="https://www.cheapjoes.com/the-palette-magazine-issue-no-71.html">New Palette Magazine</a>. He is a most adventurous artist and I loved the way that he showed us the photo reference and then the finished painting that he had done en plein air. The basic idea is that he encouraged us to not paint the picture but rather make art from the en pl1LHU73c">Tom's Watercolor Demo</a></p>ein air scene. Today is part one and I will post part two tomorrow. Also, Tom will be doing a watercolor demo just for Cheap Joe's on Wednesday at 4 pm. Here's the link: <a href="https://youtu.be/aEX-

Staying Connected During This Stay-At-Home Time
During this stay-at-home time in our collective lives, keeping connected with one another has taken on a new meaning. What could be simpler than stopping by the grocery store on the way home from work or taking a walk with friends on the local “greenway” trail? Now, many of us are working from home and look forward to the day when we can re-visit our favorite restaurant or park.
