Jeff L Good, NWS
I began painting while a student of architecture at the University of Kansas in the mid 1970's. My overwhelming favorite medium has been watercolor. I like its transparency and fluidity and most importantly the pure pleasure of letting the pigment and water create affects on the paper in a very spontaneous and rapid manner.
Painting and teaching others watercolor is a passion and joy for me.
​
I retired as a Principal of GFF Architects in 2016 and currently devote a great deal of my time painting and practicing architecture in my studio on Vashon Island, Wa. My paintings have been exhibited nationally and internationally during the past 15 years.
​
My work is represented by Gather Gallery and Waterworks Studio, both of Vashon and through my website
