Commons Daydreamer


11 x 14 " watercolor

Castagnet was wont to shout "NO MORE PRETTY COLORS! NO MORE PAINTING DUCKS ON THE WATER!" and so when I came across this in my Boston pictures, I couldn't resist. I see what he means, though. Saccharine subjects seem to cause one to fall into a certain approach. Hard to leave simple well enough alone. Never, ever going to paint willow trees again, if I can help it.
