Ein Tag im Leben (eines losen Aquarellmalers)

Hello everyone! How are you all this week? I thought I’d drop in with a quick look at what exactly I get up to in an average day. A day in the life, if you will. It’s not as action-packed as you might think – no exciting adventures, or crazy schemes, but it might give […]

Februarblumen diese Woche

Hello everyone, and welcome back to another Loose Watercolour week! Hopefully you’re all well and settled into the new year now, seeing as it’s now February (hasn’t it just flown by)! If you close your eyes and wish hard enough, it almost feels like there’s a slight spring breeze in the air, and I’m actually […]

Gold Ocker: Eine kurze Geschichte

Hello everyone, and welcome back to another addition of What’s that colour, and how exactly did it get in my paint box? Not very catchy, though. I might have to go back to the drawing board with that one. Today, we’ll be taking a quick look at Gold Ochre, and its close cousin, Yellow Ochre. […]

Flowers and florals.

Hello everyone, and welcome back to another loose watercolour week! What have you been up to in the last seven days? I’ve been painting – now, there’s a surprise. I’ve even ventured out to do a couple of plein air paintings now that the weather is (slightly) warmer, but they were more like speed paints […]

Nass-auf-nass diese Woche.

Hello everyone, and welcome back to another watercolour week! I hope you all had a lovely weekend – it’s been very windy over here, and it’s been quite wet – and while it’s useful for painting loose watercolours, it’s slightly less fun when you’re getting soggy taking the dog for a walk. If you’ve got […]

Sepia: Eine kurze Geschichte

Hello everyone, and welcome back to another edition of Loose Watercolours: Colour History, with me, your host! Today, we’ll be looking at sepia, a colour which, without fail, I always associate with old photographs, and guess what? Today we’ll find out why. In all seriousness though, thank you all for your patience as we’ve moved […]

New year, new-ish painting habits.

Hello everyone, and welcome back to another weekly edition of Loose Watercolours with Andrew Geeson. How’s your week been? How’s the weather where you are? If it’s anything like the English Midlands right now, you’ll be all wrapped up under a blanket or two with a couple of jumpers to top it off. It’s quite […]

Happy New Year!

Hello everyone, and a very warm welcome back to Andrew Geeson Loose Watercolours! I hope you all had a lovely Christmas, and a very happy new year to you all! We’re only a week in, so how are you all faring? Managed to stick to those resolutions? Have you just finished enjoying all of that […]

Phew. November’s here.

Hello everyone, and welcome to another loose watercolour week! With Bonfire Night yesterday, and Remembrance Day this weekend, it seems like Christmas is just around the corner – which is both a terrifying and an amazing thought. It’s only seven weeks now until the big day, which is certainly something to behold, and if you’re […]

Cadmium Orange: A Brief History

Hello everyone, and welcome back to another week of colour history! This time, we’re looking at Cadmium Orange, a bright, warm colour from the cadmium pigment family, hopefully reminding us of sunnier climes. Orange has been popular throughout art history, popping up in ancient cultures all the way through to the modern day. The Ancient […]
