WATERCOLORS BY JIM OBERST

Welcome!

I paint things that interest me and places where I long to be, hoping that my paintings also connect with others. My rural landscapes speak of serenity and beauty. Coastal seascapes and urban landscapes engage my sense of excitement and energy. Figurative subjects communicate people's character. My paintings entertain and tell a story, engaging the viewer. I paint in watercolor because I love its strength, luminosity, transparency, and spontaneity, and because I can achieve effects not attainable in any other medium.

This website covers my "traditional" art activities, including my activities and paintings. I invite you to Sign up for email announcing my upcoming exhibits, and to follow my art activities on Facebook.

I have committed to an exciting new Weekly Watercolor project for 2010. I will be painting an extra, small painting each week to sell via the internet for only $100 including shipping in the United States. You can view all of these these paintings on my new Weekly Watercolor website, and follow this activity on the associated Weekly Watercolor blog.
