Zan grew up playing and experimenting with art in his parents’ Atlanta studios. Of all the mediums, he loved watercolor but found it more difficult than the other mediums. In fact, he would get so frustrated with watercolor he would walk away. But his love for the medium would bring him back again and again till he finally conquered his frustration and found the joy and excitement he had always expected. Today, Zan paints strictly in watercolor, is a signature member of Watercolor Society of North Carolina, and teaches several classes which include; intro to watercolor equipment, drawing and perspective sketching, intro to watercolor basics, mixing color and paint consistency, varnishing watercolors, painting in watercolor and Plein-air tricks and techniques which is painting on location. He loves to teach art from drawing to painting but especially watercolor painting. He likes to share with his students the little tricks that helped him conquer the difficult medium of watercolor.
