Current thoughts, info, connections and painting demos.
Welcome!
New ideas and thoughts are always coming up! Students ask questions or I find something interesting on someone else's site that gets me thinking . Needing a way to communicate, I chose my site. So - here it is - my place to pass on information, tips, thoughts, etc. - about watercolor, about New Mexico, about life... I plan to update it as often as time permits and to respond to ideas or thoughts that I may receive from you. I love writing as well as teaching and learning and I believe adamantly that art is collaborative. We need each other to further our own creativity. I want and welcome your comments and thoughts and you can easily reach me via email, j-hart@cybermesa.net.

What is HartNews?
HartNews is my attempt to write about life and watercolor from where I see it. As a teacher, I enjoy passing on some of the things I think about or do in watercolor. As a fellow human, I wish to pass on some of the things that inspire me - or make me laugh!. I send out HartNews, generally 4 times/year where I write about the things I love - Ranchito San Pedro - my home and the cabins, the studio, my fellow artists, the animals and people that share my life - and watercolor demos that I digitally record in my studio and the workshops that are coming up! If you have something you'd like add or say, just email me! and please feel free to pass this on to your friends.... If you'd like to see the back issues - just check the Archives above - more demos, etc.
