About the Item
This watercolor painting #2 is part of a series featuring minimalist characters with pastel watercolors. The artwork depicts a pensive woman in the foreground. She poses with her head in her hands. A large water-down shadow covers the right half of her face, suggesting that she may have something on her mind, like what the artist depicted in the background. Sketched with black ink lines, it is a cityscape she may regret or dream of.
It's an interesting work from the often tricky leaking watercolor painting process. It is an exploration of the freedom offered by this type of painting. The artist mastered the challenges of the technique superbly.
The painter is Christopher Paul Cobb, not much could be found on him except that he was born in the 20th Century and he is the grandson of baseball player Ty Cobb.
The drawing is signed and dated (September 1995). It sits in a simple black stained wood frame.

The signature is in the right corner, and it is dated (September 1995). It sits in a simple black wood frame. Christopher Paul Cobb is an American artist born in the 20th Century.

- Black Girl Portrait - Gouache by Max TurnerLocated in Pasadena, CAA certain enigma surrounds Max Turner: he possesses both undeniable mastery and the humility of a great artist. Endowed with musicality and vibrancy in his brushwork, he remains a man of unassuming nature, far removed from the realm of trendy art galleries. His experience as an art instructor has sharpened his acuity for studying and capturing the essence of figure models, nurtured by his lifelong fascination with the human visage. In this gouache portrait, one can sense that with each stroke, he repeats a gesture as if it was the very first time, capturing that fleeting fraction of a second, an emotion, a secret of his subject to infuse into his canvases. One can feel the artist’s pleasure...Category
