She also works on a variety of alternative\, non-traditional surfaces to take advantage of different qualities that they can offer for specific subjects. Gesso coated watercolor paper is a favorite alternate. It has similarities to Yupo\, but is less capricious. It’s a “happy medium” between Yupo and cold-pressed paper and is a great surface for watercolor! In her demo\, Alexis will tell and show how easy it is to prepare your paper\, and how she works with this surface. She has a terrific camera set-up. You will have a front row seat to watch and listen as she paints. \n\nBio \nAlexis Lavine has been creating art all of her life. She earned a Masters Degree from Johns Hopkins University in its acclaimed Art as Applied to Medicine program. She worked as a medical illustrator for several years – and then found herself living in the beautiful\, isolated mountains of western Maryland\, too far away from a medical school or a medical publisher to practice her trade. So she picked up her brushes and her watercolors and started painting the magnificent landscape that surrounded her – and she hasn’t looked back since. \nAlexis paints exclusively with watercolor\, occasionally ”en plein air\,” but more frequently in her studio\, where she constructs paintings which are thoughtfully designed\, carefully drawn\, and sensitively painted. She is also an enthusiastic art instructor\, who teaches painting and drawing classes and workshops. \n\nAlexis has lived in Greensboro\, North Carolina since 2002. Honored as “One to Watch” by Watercolor Artist Magazine\, her paintings have been published in Splash\, The Artistic Touch\, The Best of Watercolor\, and Watercolor Artist. She is a signature member of the American Watercolor Society\, National Watercolor Society\, Watercolor Honor Society\, Transparent Watercolor Society of America\, Watercolor West\, North East Watercolor Society\, and Southern Watercolor Society.
