He has also recently been inducted into the Whiskey Painters of America. His work has received numerous awards in inter national competition and hangs in many corporate and private collections. Iain maintains a studio near Auburn University in Alabama, and in addition to gallery work, is an Architectural Illustrator with an international clientele and has taught watercolor and design drawing at Auburn Univer sity where he received his degree in Architecture. Artist’s Statement “I am trained as an architect and, as such, approach paint ing design with a very similar sensibility. I feel that I need to communicate the vernacular of place in a way that is deeply personal to me. I embrace a dialogue between the real and imagined – seeking a way to allow myself to express my per sonal feeling of being in a certain setting rather than being confined by the reality of it. That ebb and flow, the back and forth, are what I find important and are my motivation for all of my work.” Iain is a sought after watercolor instructor and juror and has been published in numerous books and periodicals. He has just finished production of his 5th instructional DVD. Iain is an International Brand Ambassador for Escoda Brushes Daniel Smith Watercolors Stillman & Birn Sketchbooks Iain’s first book on painting, “En Plein Air–Light and Color” More information coming Don’t miss this amazing opportunity Click here to see Iain Stewart’s webpage |
