About John Lazenby and his interest in the Wet on Wet Technique

Hi, I am John Lazenby. I live in Warlingham, Surrey with my
wife Amanda, four children and my dog Max.

I have been a traditional artist for many years and have always sold photo realistic acrylic portraits locally and nationally and contemporary modern art seascapes and abstract art on EBay.

A few years ago I stumbled across the Wet on Wet technique whilst surfing the net. I took up this technique almost immediately and started painting landscapes faster and more beautifully than I could ever have done using traditional methods. More recently I came across the late and very great Bob Ross and through his television series and by surfing I also came across Bob's predecessor in the method, William (Bill) Alexander.

Having spent some time studying both artists and many others using wet on wet around the world I felt that it would be a very good idea to set up a blog in order to share information with other artists and non artistic people who are interested in learning more about the technique.

I am having a new site built "www.johnlazenbyart.com" which will more reflect the wet on wet technique. It is my intention to teach this technique locally beginning later this year 2007.
