WATERCOLOR art

Leo Kahl's watercolor art seeks first and foremost to celebrate light, a phenomena that the watercolor medium is most suited for. Dramatic passages of light are leveraged to tell a story or describe a moment in time. Simple
moments and happenstances in life are the genesis for his inspiration, not grandiosity.
He leverages every possible characteristic of the watercolor medium from nearly imperceptible tonal washes to thick, almost impasto like applications of pigment to create mood rich and truthful art that includes areas of ambiguity and mystery.
