Beverly Palecek

 

Watercolor is a transparent media, applied to white paper, causing light hitting the paper to reflect through the transparent paint. This gives a watercolor its characteristic glow.

Beverly primarily paints in watercolor, but occasionally uses mixed media.

"If I do not get the glow in a watercolor, I draw on the painting with acid free ink and highlight areas with an acrylic paint called interference." Beverly was introduced to interference at an art workshop that she took several years ago. She prefers to use it, as a wash. painting it on the watercolor while retaining the underpainting.

Beverly is a Wisconsin artist. She belongs to several art leagues including AFAF.

She has taught beginning watercolor classes locally.

"I believe that painting is an expression of the mind and soul. I choose to paint to express and share my appreciation and vision of the great beauty that God has given us in nature. This is the reason I am primarily a landscape and floral painter."
