During August, I want to get on with some projects plus lots of you are on holiday so I'm going to be posting some reminders of "golden oldies" - otherwise known as posts from the last 17 years of Making A Mark which were well received at the time and have not aged.
Golden Oldie #1: Your favourite watercolour painters
Unsurprisingly, my first choice is a look back at favourite watercolour painters and dates back to dates summer 2011.
- It started with the Watercolour exhibition at Tate Britain (shame on Tate Britain for not keeping links to info about old exhibitions alive!)
- which resulted in this post Watercolour - Who's your favourite painter? which generated a lot of comments at the time
- then this post Your favourite watercolour painters - which in turn generated yet more discussion on the same topic.
Overall, you favoured contemporary artists more than artists from the past - however those you picked from the past are classics. Winslow Homer and John Singer Sargent are certainly two of my favourites - and I have my John Singer Sargent calendar on my wall in from of where I'm sitting!
I posted a link to this on my Facebook Page and the discussion has started up AGAIN!
