Instructor Bio
Pete Morris has been painting watercolors for 30 years and have been teaching drawing and watercolor since 2012. His website is seelifeart.com. You can see him on YouTube on a video entitled “Metrodavinci”, sketching on the Metro train. 

Pete has always drawn and painted, and can remember being attracted to watercolor even as a teenager. A few years ago, he discovered that he could do plein air sketches and paintings on the way to and from work and on lunch breaks and thereby produce a lot more work. He feels that by taking advantage of the opportunity to paint wherever he goes, wherever he can, he has been evolving in style and quality as an artist. He believes that being prolific is important to development of artistic skill, style and vision. @petemorrisart @MetroDavinciWatercolors
