Watercolor...not just for Sissies any more!

Trombonist, billiard player, third baseman, lady's man....now we can add watercolor artist to the long list of Mike Wilson's many accomplishments. I say now because his website is finally up and running and he is this month's featured artist in no less a publication than Watercolor Weekly!! http://michaelwilson.groovinmusic.net/ Click on this link and prepare to be transported into a pastoral world so subtle that you'll feel like a crass pig just for breathing. To me, this refined quality alone is a major accomplishment after the incident in 10th grade where my geography teacher accused me of being "as subtle as a turd in a punchbowl". Add this to the artistic expertise and I'm proud to say that you heard it here first! If Wilson isn't a household name within 5 years I'll be very surprised and here at The Blob I intend to tout and shill for him whenever possible (did somebody say 10%??). The paintings themselves are a joy but the website seems to be a work in progress...I'd add a few fake blurbs and critiques: "The artist's delicate yet moving juxtaposition of light and shadow remind one of DelaCroix before he contracted syphyllis" -M.J.Clark- Fine Arts Quarterly.... that sort of thing....anyways, Check it out!!
