Genre: Plein Air Painting

Rehann Vazid is Melbourne-based (AUS) watercolour artist & educator known for his bold, light filled landscape paintings. He draws inspiration from his time in nature - hiking, snorkeling, kayaking, his love of literature, poetry and finds a way to channel that into his art. He uses his art and his teaching to send a message - to get out of the chair, the studio and to go outside into nature. It works wonders for the art, but also for the artist.

Rehann's artistic practice explores the dynamic and expressive potential of watercolour. After a 15 year career in product design, he transitioned to become a full-time artist and instructor. He is known for his innovative use of colour and his ability to capture natural light and atmosphere in his work. He regularly conducts workshops for art institutions across Australia and internationally. His teaching often focuses on developing intuitive painting skills, painting fearlessly and understanding how to create luminosity in watercolor.
