John Carollo’s distinctive and flowing approach to watercolor and silk technique has been considered unusual by many viewers, especially those who have found the medium itself to be extremely challenging and unforgiving of a misplaced brush stroke. Calling on his experience as an improvisational theater performer, John presents lively and entertaining workshops and demonstrations which gives insight into how he creates his effects and encourages participants to conquer their fears and let the paint flow freely.
