Phill Nethercott

Phill Nethercott paints the landscape of his native Wyoming, including the Grand Tetons and aspen and cottonwood trees. He first paints a light coat of gesso on the canvas followed by a detailed transparent underpainting in full color, utilizing water-soluble oil and acrylic paints. Nethercott splashes the surface with dribble and splatters, creating “controlled accidents,” then finishes with a watercolor masking technique in which he applies multiple layers of paint over a period of days.
