In his workshop, Tom reveals and teaches the watercolor techniques used to
achieve the variety of textures found in his realist landscapes. Learn techniques and new methods for painting some of the landscape elements common to Dillman’s and northern Wisconsin; water, rocks and trees. Tom
paints exclusively in water media due to its ability to accept layers of transparent
glazes to achieve a glowing contrast between light and dark passages. His creative
use of colors, patterns and textures come together to capture details that
make his paintings come alive. His students learn to combine these textures
and methods along with design principles, color concepts and creativity to
create their own paintings.
