Sir William Russell Flint, watercolor
Watercolorist Russell Flint (1880-1969) said: "You must aim at getting tone and harmony in your work, although it may not be easy. All pictures may be divided into masses of bright colour or light, medium strength colour, and shadows. It may be difficult to trace the exact places where they occur in a picture, but they are there all the same.
"It is obvious that when you are working out of doors on a bright sunny day all the colours will be strong and bright in tone, and even the shadows and middle tints will be strong too.
"The opposite occurs on a dull day, when the whole scene is changed to one of low tone, when both colours and shadows will be soft and subdued. In each case the colours will harmonize and all complement each other in tone. Mix the colours of these two scenes together and the result is a discordant picture which will be unnatural and unbalanced."
