Stacy Fogleman - Stacy's Paintbrush
I have been working in watercolor for about 10 years. I have studied other paint and design mediums, but tend to return to watercolor. I do both realistic and abstract paintings.
About two years ago I started exploring the combination of watercolor with other media such as ink. I like the way it makes the details so much more pronounced. My pieces almost always reflect nature in some way. Whether it's the mountains, the ocean, or a sunset somewhere in between, my interpretation of nature's beauty is almost always front and center.
About a year and a half ago, I started weaving pieces of watercolor paper together. The technique actually occurred by accident when I became very frustrated by two different paintings. I kept thinking that I wished I could combine them, so I developed a way to do that. The pieces themselves require a lot of time and patience. They're very fragile and come apart easily until they're properly secured. The results have been very satisfying.
