Untitled is a 2004 oil by Hernan Bas, depicting Rain, held at Museum of Modern Art.
You see a young man in a dark coat standing under a bare tree, rain streaking the sky behind him. Bas layers watercolor, oil, and pencil so the paper stays visible—like a memory that hasn’t settled. The colors are thin but the mood feels heavy, as if the storm is inside the figure, not just outside. To see how other artists mix materials this way, look up glazing.
Hernan Bas is an artist based in Miami, Florida. He graduated in 1996 from the New World School of the Arts in Miami.
