Mirosław Meger's and His Students' Vernissage at the Folk High School in Radawnica

What is Watercolor?

Watercolor is a painting technique that involves using diluted paints to achieve subtle color transitions and luminosity in the artwork. It requires precision and sensitivity, which makes it especially valued in the art world. Painting with watercolors allows for effects that are difficult to achieve with other painting mediums such as oil or acrylic. This enables artists to express their most ethereal and subtle visions, making each piece unique.

Passion and Color

The colors in watercolor can be incredibly intense or delicate, depending on the amount of water and painting technique used. Participants of the workshops led by Mirosław Meger at the Folk University in Radawnica discovered the richness of these hues, resulting in works full of emotion and depth. Using these colors, artists can convey a variety of their feelings and thoughts, further enhancing the uniqueness of their pieces. The video below showcases our artists' favorite colors and their application in practice, illustrating how skillfully they combine watercolor techniques with their personal style.

At the Folk University in Radawnica, the students, along with their master Mirosław Meger, also had the opportunity to present the results of their work during the vernissage held on April 12, 2024.
