Cesc Farré (Spain)

“I am an architect at the Polytechnic University of Catalonia (UPC, Spain) and my artistic training, especially the watercolor technique, has been closely related to the graphic expression and illustration of the architectural heritage. Currently, I combine teaching watercolor at school with master classes and workshops around the world with my own research. I usually mix my colors directly on the paper to give maximum transparency and shine. I work with natural hair brushes on fine-grained cotton paper with high-quality pigments. My methodology is based on a specific study of what I am going to represent, sketches “in situ” and outdoors and an additional study based on all the material. I am passionate about nature, so I can define myself as a landscaper, a subject that I have specialized in for a few years. I am very inspired by water and its states, especially in the seascape.”
