FEATURES: METHODS & MATERIALS: BENDING WATERCOLOR TRADITIONS--A LOOK AT MEDIUMS AND MODIFIERS by Carmi Weingrod. Although there's much to be said for traditional watercolor, the use of unorthodox methods and materials also has a place in the long, rich history of watercolor painting. THE NINETEENTH-CENTURY LANDSCAPE THROUGH THE EYES OF TWO MASTERS by Joseph C. Skrapits. Two recent exhibitions--one of the oil sketches and drawings of Frederic Edwin Church and the other of the work of William Stanley Haseltine--offered an extraordinary opportunity to study the sources and development of landscape paintings that were popular a century ago. THE WATERCOLOR PAGE: ZOOMING IN ON SHAPE AND TEXTURE by Alexander J. Guthrie. I prefer not to present whole images, striving for surprise and unpredictability by cropping, deleting, and distorting them. THE IMPORTANCE OF FORM AND CONTENT by G. Paul Stutler. When I began to concentrate on the formal considerations of shape, line, value, and texture, as well as on content, my paintings became more effective. A CAREER OF HIGH STANDARDS AND HARD WORK by Jane Cottingham. Jeanette Pasin Sloan's stylized still lifes reveal the artist's maturation as a woman, a mother, a feminist, and a painter. Hers is a story of determination, struggle, and ultimate success in a field that too often overlooks women. REDISCOVERING THE SOCIETY OF AMERICAN FAKIRS. by Ronald C. Pisano and Bruce Weber.
