Empty vessels make most noise!. . . (Express strokes #1)

Watercolor on paper

'Express strokes'
- that's going to be the theme for the month of May. Detail is good, but not a must, the technique to follow when one has less than an hour to spend with brushes and colors. The transparency that one can get with watercolors have always drwan my eyes towards them. This is one of my old works, a reproduction of a watercolor artist (apologies for a bad memory, I will come back to post the name of the artist when I recollect), chosen mainly as a learning material. Just as this one, quick strokes of washes can a give a drammatic feeling for the work, and speak a lot without speaking anything at all !
