David Castle – Amazing Abstract Watermedia

Watercolor on Paper 36"x36"
Today I’d like to introduce my readers to my favorite watermedia artist – David Castle. I met David in a marketing salon run by Alyson Stanfield and we’ve occasionally run into each other at various artist gatherings over the past few years.
David is now blogging and I definitely recommend reading about his current work at davidcastleart.wordpress.com.
His new fossils series is just fascinating. You can read a bit about how he makes the "fossils" in this blog post.

I love his work and am quite enamored his geometric shapes. It almost feels to me like hand dyed/painted fabric that is cut and pieced together very similar to how I make my quilts. I love it!

That middle one makes me hungry. Maybe because I think it looks like oysters, I guess. Time for breakfast number 3 (well, I did get up at 3:30 this morning.)
Thanks so much for sharing! wonderful work. Very inspiring stuff.
Autumn No. 4 made me gasp it is so startingly wonderful!
David’s work is an inspiration! I love his technique with the agates. I never would have thought of something like that.
Glad you all enjoyed his work also. Pam – too funny about it making you hungry!
