Watercolor Demo with Pong Apinyavat

Watercolorist Pong Apinyavat will demonstrate at the June 20 meeting of the Santa Clarita Artists Association (SCAA). This event is free, open to the public and meets Monday at 6:30 p.m. at Barnes & Noble, 23630 Valencia Blvd.
Plein Air Watercolorist Pong Apinyavat is one of today’s foremost painters of the California coastline.  He captures the many moods and colors of the sea, beaches, coastal highways and recognizable landmarks.
“My plein air style might include painting the early morning mist, bright mid-day sun and flow of the evening sunset on the water.  My goal is to capture the beautiful natural world I see,” said Apinyavat. “My paints and easel are always with me.”
In the past decade he has won many awards including Winsor & Newton
(Merchandise Award), Valley Watercolor Society Jack Richeson Award, M. Graham, Inc. Award, Grumbacher Gold Medallion Award, and the prestigious Best of Show from the Weisman Museum, Pepperdine University. Also, his work has been exhibited in the California Heritage Museum in Santa Monica.
“I’m a juried member of Watercolor West.  My paintings are found in many private collections and galleries in the United States, Asia and Europe. I currently judge many art shows, give popular watercolor demonstrations and teach workshops throughout California, said Apinyavat.  View his art on www.pongapinyavat.com
