About me
My name is Ana Griselda Hine and I am a Costa Rican watercolor artist and instructor.
Watercolor is my favorite among all other painting techniques, because of its transparency, luminosity and apparent simplicity. Painting watercolor is a game with water, paper and pigment . There are so many different approaches that can be used to convey an image! We can be soft and delicate with controlled glazes, or free and energetic with flowing stains and loose brushstrokes. We can be experimental and playful letting water and pigment move freely over the paper, and guide them to produce many varied effects. The challenge of successful watercolor painting demands mastering all these approaches.
It is very important to share experiences with other artists too, in workshops , collective exhibitions or online. Although creating art is seen as a solitary endeavor in a studio, seeing and sharing other artists viewpoints enlightens the path of creativity that we share.
I congratulate the creators of the International Watercolor Platform and wish it great success!
