13 Artists meeting artists | SAM DRUKKER
Titus Meeuws visits painter Sam Drukker. Sam prefers working on old used wooden boards, sails and rough materials because of the hidden histories in these materials and the need to play with structures and left paint. "There was a time I wanted to know as much as possible about painting techniques to become a skillful artist. But the things you can't control are very nice. So trying to control a line with a material that doesn't work with you is nice. To make it difficult for yourself."

This week I've been working on 7 value sketches in watercolor for new commissioned paintings. As always I tell you what's on my mind and this week I spoke about the system we build together. It seems to make us stronger but some of us feel captivated by it.

8 Is watercolorpainting easy?
This week I retouch an older watercolor. It shows a ditch in Amsterdam in autumn. The next morning I'm leaving early to make several plein air studies for some commissioned watercolours. I went to Deventer and Epe, both here in Holland.
Thinking about one of the comments I read under one of my videos, I noticed the importance of lightness and ease in watercolorpainting. I think these elements put poetry in this beautiful technique.
