About Graeme
For many years I have practiced and had a passion for watercolour as a painting medium. It tends to have a mind of its own used in wet in wet applications, adding to spontaneity, capturing moody atmospheric effects, as well as producing attractive visual impact. In short, watercolour is a fantastic medium to paint with as it requires a mental focus which takes us into relaxation as part of getting a visual result. Mastering watercolour as a medium is certainly about knowing how to use moisture levels in paper, brush and palette which obviously comes with practice, practice and more practice.

I completed formal courses in drawing and watercolour painting through TAFE Colleges near Perth, Western Australia. Also I acquired valuable knowledge through attending watercolour workshops run by skilled watercolourists such as Robert Wade, Tony Smibert and Joseph Zbukvic. My main source of tuition came through a dear friend of mine, Walter Tyrell, a skilled Western Australian watercolourist who was always generous in sharing his knowledge by practical demonstrations.
