Watercolor for everyone

Watercolor artwork and story by Carlos Roberto dos Santos

I started in watercolor about a year ago. I am a university student, and I am seriously thinking about dedicating my whole life to this art. I chose watercolor for its fuidity and spontaneity. The path I took was the self taught path, with many successes and mistakes, and I continue dedicating myself to it. It has become a passion for me.

I have been drawing since I was a kid; art has always been present in my life, from crayon to graphite. I made many drawings for my schoolmates when I was a boy, I never thought about leaving what I do is a way of expressing myself, perceiving the world, and communicating with people.

My main challenge is to try to understand the technique more in order to explore new ideas, and to be able to develop my language more.

In art I want to interact and learn everything that is within my reach, I am open to any exchange and type of artistic experience.

The watercolor academy for me has been a way to meet other artists, to understand new contents and at the same time a way to develop my work.

I want to win the Watercolor Academy course because I am sure that it will be a way to further develop the work that I do, the course will give me many possibilities for knowledge.

I would like you to take into consideration the content that I express in the themes that I develop, the simple daily life, the culture of my city and other realities in my country.
