About this work

This watercolor shows a person with wings, holding a book. The figure has a strong, simple outline. The background is pale and uncluttered. The artist, Sotirios Michou, often painted dreamy scenes like this. He used watercolor in layers, called glazing, to build soft colors. Look at how the light falls on the wings. It makes them feel real. Check out more works by Michou, Sotirios (1936-2010).
