[Aquanet] Tom Lynch

[Carrie Holst]

Was there a materials list that specified purchasing the watercolor canvas or did he just sell it at the workshop? Neither one of you said if you got what you wanted out of the workshop...... was it a packed house....... Did you have much time to paint?  He's coming here next April so I am curious.

Hi hi
I went to his workshop in Toronto where he did that and I can't remember if he suggested spraying it with fixative or varnish or anything.  If the canvas gets wet the watercolour runs.  The voice of experience speaking here.  Valerie Kent

Tom works exclusively on the Fredrix canvas now. He says that his work is in
much higher demand from galleries since he has switched from paper.  There
is no framing involved at all, as it is stretched already. The galleries are
now hanging his work in the front window because there is no glare from the
glass.

To begin a painting, you squirt the entire canvas with water, then wipe with
a terry cloth towel.  Then it is ready to paint.
