Sentiment is a 1950 watercolor by Monty Wilson, a Abstract Expressionism work, depicting Sheet Music, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
This watercolor shows two people on a wooden porch at night. A woman in a red dress and high heels holds a piece of paper with music notes on it. A man in a suit and bow tie sits on a stool, playing a guitar under a big green plant. The sky is dark with stars, and there’s a small plant in the corner. The woman’s exaggerated smile and the man’s focused playing give the scene a playful, almost cartoonish feel. The sheet music she holds is labeled with a title, but the words are unclear. If you like this style, check out the Victoria and Albert Museum’s collection.
A watercolour titled *Sentiment* by Monty Wilson from 1950 depicts a singer performing "Goodbye" by Tosti, her face streaked with tears, while an accompanying guitarist also weeps.

Monty Wilson kept a tiny studio above a laundromat, the smell of soap lingering on his brushes.
