Woody Hansen is a friend and fellow painter located in Sacramento, CA. His site features many of his paintings as well as information on his many workshops and classes. Woody paints very loose, and has an offbeat style which I find fascinating.

David Peterson is a friend and fellow painter located in Sacramento, CA. His site features many of his unusual paintings as well as local information on his doings in and around the Sacramento area.

Frank Webb is a master painter. His site includes some of his paintings as well as workshop information.

Tony Couch is another master at his craft. His paintings are always a joy to behold.

Tony Van Hasselt's paintings range from the realistic to the more abstract, but are always fun. His site contains lots of tips and useful info.

Eric Wiegardt's work is always loose and fresh. He has several new videos on working loose that you should check out.

Don Andrews also works very loose, but with lots of control. I know that sounds odd, but his paintings are something special.

Frank Francese is so loose that you have to see him in action to believe it. Frank uses big brushes and bold colors in all of his paintings.

Ratindra Das paints in a unique style. Large blocks of color and a quirky sense of angles makes his work fun to look at.

I enjoy the loose quality of Sterling Edwards' work. His abstracted paintings are just a joy to look at.

Steven Quiller is a mixed media master painter. From watercolor to acrylics, Steven's work is on it's own level.

Although he apparently doesn't have his own website, this site provides some good examples of Brommer's watercolor and collage work. You can also find more of his work at the California Watercolor homepage.

I recently was introduced to Anne's work via the internet and her reciprocal interest in my own work. I find Anne's work exciting and certainly entertaining. A mixture of contemporary styles with a dash of the unique would be a good way to describe the work.

Jeff paints with raw, bright, and explosive colors and expresses himself in an honest, straightforward manner.

Eyvind Earle is an artist of extreme ability. His work on Walt Disney's "Sleeping Beauty" is beyond great. This site offers a look at his fabulous work outside of the Disney studio.

See their website for information and membership details. The HVAA offers classes, workshops, and many other opportunities for local artists.

One of the best sites to view watercolors from the "California" or "West Coast" school of watercolor painting. Here you can see paintings from the great artists of this painting style.

I met Bob the other day at a demo and I love his site. Bob not only takes wonderful photographs, but also offers instruction in photography along with printing services.

Shawn Hansen is a writer of short stories and poetry, and has a unique literary style. This site is definitely something special. Join the project and receive a short story each month!

Here is the link to find the metal baking pan w/ metal lid that I use as a water container and storage container for my watercolor stuff.
