“I love watercolor for its immediacy, transparency, luminosity and the expressive possibilities that water and pigment give us to create infinite atmospheres and textures. I am fascinated by watercolor "not only because of its amazing results, but also because of the pictorial process itself. The possibilities it offers to work with different approaches makes each watercolor an adventure, an amazing, fun and unique experience. Watercolor for me the most suitable technique to represent any subject from the suggestion, the synthesis and the simplification, eliminating the details and trying to keep the essence of what we want to represent. I am touched by those watercolors that, with a few brush strokes, suggest great stories”.
Luis Cámara works as watercolor instructor in Spain and through online courses. He has also been invited as watercolor trainer in other countries, like China, Portugal or United States.
