Medium: Watercolor on paper
Dimensions: 11.75in. h x 15in. w
Description:
"It is not that the commercial attitude is wrong from any human standpoint, but that the more one paints, the less inclined he is to confuse styles and structural facts. I do not try, as some of my old teachers did, to preach against commercialism; but point out to my students the need to know the truth before trying to cope with the confusing problems of such composition."
