Artwork gallery Water
Water is a difficult thing to depict. Due to it’s transparent and formless nature it can be difficult to know how even to approach it. Water based materials such as watercolour and gouache are often used. Pictorially water is a great devise for reflection. As in Caravaggio’s ‘Narcissus’ the water allows a deeper sense of reflection and introspection. It is as if the water allows us to see ourselves with more clear reflection in another space.
