Bertrand Locke

Bertrand Locke wore a beret every day, even in the rain, and kept a tiny brush tucked behind his ear like a pencil. His watercolors hum with quiet intensity, damp paper and bleeding pigment that feels alive in your hands. If you like the way a color can feel like a mood, tap into Untitled (ca. 1930), where a single stroke of ultramarine turns a corner into something you want to step into.
