Watercolors are often lighthearted romps. After all, the medium demands soft brushstrokes. Colors only darken with layering or mixing mediums. WaterColor by Antonio works both ways. Realistic detail and heavy paint often add weight to figurative pieces. But Antonio González García lifts and lightens bodies with his work. There’s profound depth as well. That’s because strong lines and archetypal themes ground the work. Antonio’s paintings are intense thanks to his process too. Check out his Instagram to see this in action. In fact, that’s what drew me to WaterColor by Antonio in the first place. García shares process vids along the way while he creates and shares with admirable openness. It’s a wonder to see how it all comes together. WaterColor’s transparent quality always makes me curious about the painting process especially. There’s no room for mistakes. Every stroke of the brush shows up clear and true, like a declaration. Thus, the artistic process takes extra care in WaterColor’s case. That’s what makes it so cool for Antonio to share it with us. All the while he brushes tender truth and profound themes onto paper. Learn more about this profound artist and his work at: https://www.ladykflo.com/watercolor-by-antonio/
