Maxine Masterfield
In college I discovered a book on experimental watercolor called In Harmony with Nature, by Maxine Masterfield. Her book taught me the many techniques I still use today. In 1998, I took her yearly watermedia workshop in Traverse City, Michigan. She is an outstanding artist, teacher and friend. See: Personal website or
