Precision in a Watercolor World - Defying his medium’s penchant for diffusion and softness, Jerome drives his watercolors into hard, clear, clean lines and planes of color. This self-taught artist works with precision to render dramatic compositions, street scenes and portraits that capture the whole of humanity- all races living in harmony. particularly old and modern masters, their lives and techniques. Painting a precise action, also painting from memories and experience of music (in the portraits of jazz musicians) or his hopes and dreams (in his street scenes). The street scenes like “The Premiere,” “Down to the Nightclub,” and “In the Open Air” bustle with life. Some people are beautifully dressed, others plainly. Blacks and whites inhabit the same space freely and easily. Dignity matters. So does music. Marilynne S.
