Untitled is a 2002 watercolor by Uwe Kowski, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This painting is a loose, colorful mess of brushstrokes and watercolor splashes. You can barely tell what it’s supposed to be—just thick, uneven lines in red, green, yellow, and blue scattered across the page. Some areas are dark and heavy, while others fade into pale, almost see-through patches. The artist used watercolor, which lets paint soak into the paper and blend easily. That’s why some spots look smudged or half-transparent, like they were done in layers. If you like this loose, paint-smeared style, check out watercolor, glazing next.
