Glen Knowles will demonstrate watercolor at the Monday, Jan. 21, meeting of the Santa Clarita Artists Association (SCAA). This event is free, open to the public and meets at 6:30 p.m. at Barnes & Noble, 23630 Valencia Blvd.
Knowles was inspired by the early California Impressionist oil painters and California-style watercolorists; ultimately organizing six exhibitions on the history of Southern California art and artists.
“I love the adventure of combining painting and travel and have painted on all seven continents and in the John Muir wilderness of the eastern Sierra Nevada Mountains,” said Knowles.
Renowned for his Plein Air outdoor landscapes, Knowles was a professor of art, teaching over 5,000 students. He invented the ColorWheel palette, a color theory mixing system. ‘North Light Books Splash 3’ called Knowles one of America’s top 105 contemporary watercolor painters. He has an extensive regional, national and international exhibition record, with Gold and First place wins. Glen Knowles is a member of the National Academy of Professional Plein Air Painters and a member of the California Art Club.
Come early, standing room only by 6:30 p.m. See www.SantaClaritaArtists.org.

Glen was my art teacher at Antelope Valley College back in the ’80’s. We usually went out on location to paint. It was a lot of fun and I was fortunate to have such a knowledegable and excellent teacher!
