Artist Lieta Gratteri
I have been painting for eight years and love bringing living items into my art, such as birds. I love making them come alive, trying to capture a lot of texture on my paper. Watercolor has its own mind sometimes; it’s fun trying to control it to what I’m looking for.
“Chickadee Bundle” watercolor by Lieta Gratteri
My main medium is watercolor with some oil painting on the side.
I love pushing color which is terrific with birds.
“I Spy” watercolor with gold leaf by Lieta Gratteri
As you can see, I love to work with color. Making things glow is a passion for me. Layering colors gets a real nice effect.
