He also paints landscape watercolors and illustrations
Alan is passionated by art and nature since he is a kid. He uses watercolor to understand the environment around him and prefers to paint the light and the atmosphere of places he visits, not details. By simplifying what he sees throught series of sketches and studies, he tries to focus essentially on the structure of landscapes he paints.
