Festival Artist - René C. Reyes
René C. Reyes specializes in watercolor, especially gouache or
opaque watercolor. Most of his paintings are of California’s
wildlife and portraits of people he has met over the years.
René is a painter and a biologist, but is a father and a husband
first. He lives in Northern California with his wife, Pamela,
and two daughters, Maya and Mandela.
From the Artist
"I would like to prevent people from ever seeing how a painting of mine has been done. What can it possibly matter? What I want is that the only thing emanating from my picture should be emotion." Those were the words of Pablo Picasso and that is exactly how I am with painting. I prefer to paint in solitude. I do not like an audience. However, I do enjoy sharing a painting when complete.
