Watercolour Painting Demonstration – Painting An Iris

By Rex Beanland

I was born in England, raised in Canada and now live in Calgary, Alberta.  I paint full time and am very active in various art groups in Calgary and British Columbia.  My work is know for a bold use of colour and value.  I work in watercolour and acrylic and I am very inspired by the land, the people and the moods of Western Canada.  I was a public school teacher for 20 years and this has helped me to earn a growing reputation for teaching drawing and painting.

I am really pleased to announce that I have just created a brand new web site. In addition to featuring my art, it also includes my almost daily blog of the up to the minute twists and turns of my art journey.  It also includes another blog featuring the work of my students.  If you get a minute check out the student blog and scroll down to the drawing class images.  It’s unusual to see people improve so much so quickly.  Visit my site http://rexbeanland.com

Along with his wife, Susan, I also run a videography business so creating art instruction videos is a natural integration of art and video.  I love being on both sides of the camera.
