Description
This black and white painting reflects the cosmopolitan character of spending a day at the Pompidou in Paris, France. It utilizes an opaque type of watercolor paint, known as gouche, which is a painting style that has been around for centuries. The wet paint infuses itself into the structure of the paper, creating a stiff and sophisticated feeling across the image. Here, a woman reflects on the stylings of what looks like a Picasso painting. The negative space between the two characters evokes both a sense of distance and artistic contemplation.
