I love the watercolor. Fluid, rhythmic, shadows in all the right places, great use of light.

The rest just do nothing for me. I stand and go "?????"

Yes, I thought the watercolors were the best. I think it is because the colors blended and were more subtle in those, plus the special lighting in the show made them glow like stained glass.

The other paintings are very architectonic. Each brushstroke is like a building block. They are strong, not subtle. But the best ones are not the ones reproduced here. There are stronger works and they do work.
