Victor Borisov-Musatov made this watercolour, 'On a Balcony in Tarusa' with soft strokes and colours that seem to breathe. It's a reminder that art is as much about the making as the seeing. Look at the way the light filters through the trees, casting a warm glow on the balcony floor. You can almost feel the gentle breeze and hear the rustling of leaves. The paint is thin, almost translucent, giving the scene a dreamlike quality. Notice how the artist uses layers of colour to create depth and texture. See the way the greens and yellows blend together to form the foliage, the strokes seem fluid and spontaneous. It reminds me a bit of the work of Berthe Morisot, with her delicate touch and intimate scenes of daily life. It's like they're both inviting us into their world, one brushstroke at a time. Art isn't about having all the answers, but about embracing the questions and possibilities.
