Picasso at 20 starting his “Blue period” heading toward the “Rose period”, he is quoted as saying : “I was a painter and became Picasso…The Blue Period was not a question of light and colour. It was an inner necessity to paint like that.” #picasso #watercolorportrait #impressionistart #aquarelle

Picasso in 1904, from a photograph by his friend and fellow artist Richard Canals. Apparently moving from what is described as “Blue” to “Rose” period. Best guess is he is styling a “puff tie”, love to know what that pin-striped suit was made of #practice #picasso #aquarelle

Isle of Skye, an April visit. And what is my fondest memory of the island, a friend asked? Well, besides Portree, the eggs, yes the eggs were magnificent, their color! #scotlandhighlands #watercolourart #isleofskye #blueskyeart #blueskyart

Posted the photo of this view in July looking east from above the dunes at Cahoon’s Hollow, Wellfleet on the Cape. Have a ways to go before I can mix a bang on pink with watercolor :) #watercolourart #oceanview #cahoonshollow #aquarelle #beyondtheshore

And the original from the master, André Derain #andrederain #lesfauves

A practice effort on one of André Derain’s awesome paintings, I believe his title is Près du Cassis completed in 1909. (This title and date attribution may slightly incorrect) Trying to solve the colors puzzle is really fun, a good way to learn. Derain is so great #andrederain #aquarelle #practice

From an unknown painting I stumbled across 5 years ago, ( can’t figure out from where:( but I loved the colors and figured a little exercise to get away from being too serious about the outcome would be good. #watercolorpractice #color
