“It is generally admitted that the most beautiful qualities of a color are in its transparent state, applied over a white ground with light shining through the color.”
— Maxfield Parrish
“Watercolors on Paper” gathers together a selection of work painted from life in the medium of watercolor on 140 lb. Arches Cold Pressed paper. The cherry tomatoes, grown on a balcony in Brooklyn, were deliciously sweet, and called out to be painted…before they were devoured. The flower and potted palm were equally insistent about being recognized.
